Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

h = -6t^{2} +20t + 4

I will use calculus,  maybe that's not how you're supposed to do this

-12t +20 =0

12t = 20

t = 20 /12

t = 1 \frac{8}{12}

t = 1 \frac{2}{3}

there will be a max at  1.6666666666  seconds

-6*1.6666666666666^{2}  + 20 * 1.6666666666  +4

= 16.666666666666 + 33.333333333333 + 4

= - 16\frac{2}{3} + 33 \frac{1}{3} + 4

= 20\frac{2}{3}  feet max height ( not too high,  for a rocket)

time of flight:

0 = -6t^{2} +20t + 4

use quadratic formula to find t

-20 +- sqrt [ 20^{2} - 4*(-6)*4 ] / 2*(-6)

-20 +- sqrt [400 + 96 ] / -12

-20 +- sqrt [496 ] / -12

-20 +- 22.27105 / -12

try the negative option 1st

-42.27105 / -12

3.522 seconds.     time of flight

when will the rocket be at 12' ? :

12 = -6t^{2} +20t + 4

0 = -6t^{2} +20t -8

use quadratic formula again to find t

-20 +- sqrt [ 20^{2} - 4*(-6)*(-8) ] / 2*(-6)

-20 +- sqrt [ 400 - 192 ] / -12

-20 +- sqrt [208 ] / -12

-20 - 14.4222 / -12

-34.4222 / -12

2.8685 seconds ( on the way down)

and

-20 + 14.4222 / -12

-5.578 / - 12

0.4648  seconds ( on the way up )

How do I rewrite a quadratic into graphing form
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form of a quadratic is f(x) = ax² + bx + c.

To convert to vertex form, the simplest method is to find the x-coordinate of the vertex using h = -b/(2a).

Then, plug back into the equation to find the y-coordinate of the vertex.  k = f(h).

Finally, the leading coefficient is the same as the standard form, a.

f(x) = a(x − h)² + k

Another method is to complete the square.

Joe decides to take his six year old son to the planetarium. The price for the child's ticket is 5.75 dollars less than the pric
mart [117]
To answer this item, we are instructed that the price of the ticket for the children is equal to x. Since, we are also given that this is 5.75 less than the price of tickets for the adults, we may express this as follows,

    x = n - 5.75

n is the price of ticket for the adults. This can be calculated by transposing 5.75 to the other side of the equation,

   n = x + 5.75

The answer is the third choice.
