The reciprocal is the inverted form of the term. So like the reciprocal of 5/2 is 2/5. It is the flipped form of a term. Hope that helps :D

A baseball is thrown in a parabolic arc. It's position above the ground at a given point in time can be represented by the quadr
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The baseball reached 9 feet high above the ground

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic function representing the position of the baseball above ground is p(t) = 1/2·g·t² + v₀·t + p₀

Where;

t ≥ 0

g = -32 ft./sec²

v₀ = The initial velocity

p₀ = The initial position

Given that when the ball is thrown, we have;

The initial, straight up, velocity, v₀ = 16 ft./sec

The initial position, p₀ = 5 ft.

Substituting the above values in the quadratic function representing the position of the baseball above ground, we have;

p(t) = 1/2·(-32)·t² + 16·t + 5 = 16·t - 16·t² + 5

At the maximum point, the rate of change of the height with time = 0, therefore;

dp(t)/dt = 0 = d(16·t - 16·t² + 5)/dt = 16 - 32·t

16 - 32·t = 0

16 = 32·t

t = 16/32 = 0.5 seconds

Therefore, the time takes to reach the maximum height = 0.5 seconds

The height (maximum) reached in 0.5 seconds is given as follows;

h(t) = 16·t - 16·t² + 5, from which we have;

h(0.5) = 16 × 0.5 - 16 × (0.5)² + 5 = 9

Therefore, the height baseball reached = 9 ft. above ground

2*8*5=2*5*8 identify the property that is shown
ira [324]
The property shown is commutative multiplication.  This property says that the product of two factors is not affected by the order in which they're multiplied.  In this case, the product remains the same i.e.,  2*8*5 = 80 while 2*5*8 <em>also </em>equals 80.
