A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 80ft/s. Its height H in feet after T seconds id given by the function H

= -16T^2+80T+5. What is the maximum height the ball reaches? How long will it take the ball to reach maximum height? How long does it take for the mall to be caught 5 feet off the ground?
All I really need help on is the last one.
Will some one plz help me.

1. The function H= -16T^2+80T+5 is a parabola of the form a x^{2} +bx+c, so to find the maximum height of the ball, we are going to find the y-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola. To find the y-coordinate of the vertex we are going to evaluate the function at the point \frac{-b}{2a}.
From our function we can infer that b=80 and a=-16, so the point \frac{-b}{2a} [/tex] will be \frac{-80}{-2(16)} = \frac{5}{2}. Lets evaluate the function at that point:
h=-16t^2+80t+5
h=-16( \frac{5}{2} )^2+80( \frac{5}{2} )+5
h=105

We can conclude that the ball reaches a maximum height of 105 feet.

2. Since we now know that the maximum height the ball reaches is 105 feet, we are going to replace h with 105 in our function, then we are going to solve for t to find how long the ball takes to reach its maximum height:
h=-16t^2+80t+5
105=-16t^{2}+80t+5
-16t^2+80t-100=0
-4(4t^{2}+20t-25)=0
4(2t-5)^2=0
2t-5=0
t= \frac{5}{2}
t=2.5

We can conclude that the ball reaches its maximum height in 2.5 seconds.

3. Just like before, we are going to replace h with 5 in our original function, then we are going to solve for t to find how long will take for the ball to be caught 5 feet off the ground:
h=-16t^2+80t+5
5=-16t^2+80t+5
-16t^{2}+80t=0
-16t(t-5)=0
t-5=0
t=5

We can conclude that it takes 5 seconds for the ball to be caught 5 feet off the ground.

without using your calculator or computer graphing tool. match each function rule with its graph. In each case, write a sentence
valentinak56 [21]
Well I know that c. goes with I. just because I saw so many x^3 graphs.

For a. the parent function is x^2, so 0.5x^2 should look about the same as x^2, so the answer is VI.

Is an obtuse angle larger then acute ?and why.. plz help
Vinvika [58]
Hey there! How are you doing today?

When we are dealing with angles, it's imperative to know what measurements of angles are labeled.

There are three types of angles:
1.) Acute
2.) Right
3.) Obtuse

Let's define all three of these and then answer our question with the information given.

An acute angle is an angle that measures less than 90 degrees. An example of this is:

Ex1) A triangle has the angle measurements of 90, 45, and x. Solve for x.
Remember that the angles of a triangle must sum up to 180 degrees. To solve for x, we need to combine 90 and 45, then subtract the sum from 180.

90 + 45 = 135
180 - 135 = 45

The missing angle 'x' is 45 degrees, which is an acute angle since it measures less than 90 degrees.

Now let's move on to our second angle, the right angle. This is a pretty basic one and can be discovered without much observation or even work required.
A right angle measures 90 degrees exactly, no more and no less, and generally has a box in a corner of a geometrical figure.

Since we've covered both an acute and right angle, let's discuss what an obtuse angle is. An obtuse angle is an angle that measures more than 90 degrees. You can discover these angles in triangles, octagons, and other geometrical figures.

Now, let's review what we've learned and find our answer.

The question asks if an obtuse angle is larger than an acute angle.
Since we have learned an acute angle measures less than 90 degrees, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90 degrees, we can answer the question with:

An obtuse angle is larger than an acute angle.

I hope this helps, and feel free to comment any questions or concerns about this in the comment box below this answer.
Have a great day, Larissa!
