On a vacation in Puerto Rico, Rose jumped off a cliff into a river in EL Yunque Forest Reserve. Her height as a function of time

could be modeled by the function h(t)=-16t^2 + 16t + 480, where t is the time after jumping in seconds and h is the height in feet. How many seconds did it take Rose to hit the water? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth

H(t) = -16t² + 16 t + 480

Factor out -16
-16(t² - t - 30) 
t² - t - 30 
(t + 5)(t - 6) ⇒ t(t-6) + 5(t-6) ⇒ t² -6t + 5t - 30 ⇒ t² - t - 30

t + 5 = 0           t - 6 = 0
t = -5                t = 6

The value of t is either -5 or 6 however time can't be measured in negative form; then, it took Rose 6 seconds to hit the water.

Answer:

32 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the volume of the bottom section

V = l * w*h

V = 6 * 2 * 2 = 24 m^2

Then find the volume of the top section in green

The length is 6-4 =2,  the height is 4-2, width is 2

V = = l*w*h = 2*2*2 = 8

Ad the volumes together

V = 24+8 = 32 m^2

You can write the equation 2x + 3x = 5000

Then combine like terms 5x = 5000

Divide by 5 on both sides x = 1000

Find 2x 2x = 2000

Which of the following measurements could be the side lengths of a right triangle?
nataly862011 [7]

For this case we have that every rectangle traingule complies with the Pythagorean theorem:

c = \sqrt {a ^ 2 + b ^ 2}

Where:

c: It is the hypotenuse

b: It's the base

a: It's the height

It is noted that if we replace:

a = 66\\b = 88\\c = \sqrt {66 ^ 2 + 88 ^ 2}\\c = 110

So, we have c = 110 \ in ^ 2

If we evaluate the other options we will obtain wrong results.

Thus, a rectangle triangle can have measurements of:

66 in, 88 in and 110 in respectively

Answer:

Option b

Is the function f(x) x³-11x odd even or neither​
Paul [167]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is odd if f(-x) = -f(x)

A function is even if f(-x) = f(x)

And neither if neither are true.

In this case if we plugged in a negative x here

f(-x) = (-x)^3 - 11(-x)

f(-x) = -x^3 + 11

Therefore, this function is odd because if we pulled out a negative one again we would get back the original function. Or in other words f(-x) = -f(x) for f(x) = x^3 - 11x
