A catapult launches a boulder with an upward velocity of 112 ft/s. The height of the boulder, h, in feet after t seconds is give

n by the function h= -16t^2 + 112t + 30 .
How long does it take the boulder to reach its maximum height? What is the boulder’s maximum height? Round to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.



A. 7 s; 30 ft
B. 3.5 s; 366 ft
C. 3.5 s; 618 ft
D. 3.5 s; 226 ft

To determine the time it takes for the maximum height to be achieved, derive the  equation and equate to zero. 
                        h = -16t² + 112t + 30
                       dh / dt = 0 = 2(-16)t + 112
The value of t is 3.5 s. Substitute this value of time to the equation for h,
                         h = -16 x (3.5 s)² + 112 x 3.5 s + 30 = 226 ft
Thus, the answer is letter D.

A biker moves 2.5 times faster than a walker. They started moving simultaneously in the same direction from the same point. In t
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The speed of the biker is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you call the speed of the walker x, and the speed of the biker 2.5x.

Then you know that speed times time equals distance, so you set up and equation. You do x times 2, which is 2x, and then 2.5x times 2, which is 5x. Then, since the distance between them is 18 miles, the equation would be 5x-2x=18. You would get 3x=18, and x is 6. So 6 is the speed of the walker, and 6 times 2.5 = 15, so the speed of the biker is 15.

What is the height of the prism if there is 30 square centimeters and the volume is 90 cubic centimeters
sammy [17]

Answer:

the height of the prism =3cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question :there is 30 square centimeters, we can deduce this is the area due to the unit

the volume is 90 cubic centimeters

Volume of prism = Area of base × height

We are to determine the height

90cm³ = 30cm² × height

divide both sides by 30cm²

height = 90cm³/30cm²

height = 3cm

Therefore the height of the prism is 3centimeters

What is the solution of the equation over the complex numbers
denis-greek [22]

<u>Answer:</u>

2i\sqrt{3}

-2i\sqrt{3}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

x^2 + 12

First set the equation to 0

x^2 + 12

x^2 + 12 = 0

Second, get the 12 on the right side of the equal sign by adding a -12 to each side

x^2 + 12 = 0

x^2 + 12 + (-12) = 0 -12

x^2 = -12

Square root both sides of the equal sign.

x^2 = -12

\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{-12}

Take the square root on left sides of the equal sign.

\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{-12}

x = \sqrt{-12}

Take the square root on the right side of the equal sign. Remember \sqrt{-1} = i

x = \sqrt{-12}

x = \sqrt{4}*\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{3}}

x = 2i\sqrt{3}

<u>AND</u>

x = -2i\sqrt{3}
