Let’s look at another one of Homer’s rocket launches. It was launched from ground level with an initial velocity of 208 feet per

second. Its distance in feet from the ground after t seconds is given by S(t) = -16t2 + 208t. What is the maximum altitude (height) the rocket will attain during its flight? (Think about where the maximum value of a parabola occurs.)

Answer:

Smax = 676 ft

the maximum altitude (height) the rocket will attain during its flight is 676 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The height function S(t) of the rocket as;

S(t) = -16t2 + 208t

The maximum altitude Smax, will occur at dS/dt = 0

differentiating S(t);

dS/dt = -32t + 208 = 0

-32t +208 = 0

32t = 208

t = 208/32

t = 6.5 seconds.

The maximum altitude Smax is;

Substituting t = 6.5 s

Smax = -16(6.5)^2 + 208(6.5)

Smax = 676 ft

the maximum altitude (height) the rocket will attain during its flight is 676 ft

If 2x^2 -2y^2 = 72 and if x+y=18 what does x-y equal
Tju [1.3M]
First factor out the 2:

x^2 - y^2 = 36

x^2 - y^2 can be factored into (x+y)(y-y) so:

(x + y)(x - y) = 36

plug in your value:

18 (x-y) = 36 and you should be able to take it from there

How many different triangles can you make from 6 cm,6 cm, and 4 cm?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a triangle are 6cm, 6cm, and 4cm.

According to triangle inequality, the sum of the length of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

So,

6+6=12>4

6+4=10>6

4+6=10>6

Therefore, the theorem of triangle inequality is satisfied for all three possible cases. This implies that only one triangle can be constructed with sides measuring 6cm, 6cm, and 4cm.

Evaluate cos(tan^-1 0)
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

cos(tan^{-1}(0))=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate cos(tan^-1 0)

cos(tan^{-1}(0))

We know that tan(0)=0

tan (0 degree)=0

tan^{-1}(0)=0

Replace it in our problem

cos(tan^{-1}(0))

cos(0)

At 0 degree the cos value is 1

So co(0)=1

cos(tan^{-1}(0))=1
