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

Answer:

<em>m</em> > 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Move all terms not containing <em>m </em>to the right side of the inequality.

Inequality Form:

<em>m </em>> 6

Interval Notation:

(6, ∞)

Therefor, the answer would be:

<em>m </em>> 6

How do I solve this question?
Tanya [424]
Before attempting to solve this question, we must first know three things.

1. A straight line has a measure of 180 degrees.

2. When two angles add up to 180 degrees, those angles are called supplementary.

3. The interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

We can see ∠ECT = 180 degrees.

∠DCT is supplementary to ∠DCE.

∠DCT = 140 degreees
∠DCE = x degrees

x + 140 = 180

Solve for x.

x + 140 = 180
x = 40 <-- Subtract 140 from each side

∠DCE = 40 degrees

We know the two interior angles of ΔDEC.

45 + 40 + x = 180

Solve for x.

45 + 40 + x = 180
85 + x = 180 <-- Combine like terms
x = 95

So, the missing angle is equal to 95 degrees.
