if a toy rocket is launced vertically upward from ground level with an inital velocity of 128 feet per second, then its high h,

makkiz [27]

The toy rocket hits the ground when h(t) = 0.
So, h(t) = 0 = -9t^2 + 81.

Solving the equation,
-9t^2 = -81
Dividing by -9
t^2 = 9
Taking the square root.
t = 3

The answer is 3 seconds.

Part A. What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line whose equation is −2y=3x+7?

Rewrite the equation −2y=3x+7 in the form $y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x-\dfrac{7}{2}.$ Here the slope of the given line is $m_1=-\dfrac{3}{2}.$ If $m_2$ is the slope of perpendicular line, then

$m_1\cdot m_2=-1,\\ \\m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}=\dfrac{2}{3}.$

Answer 1: $\dfrac{2}{3}$

Part B. The slope of the line y=−2x+3 is -2. Since $-\dfrac{3}{2}\neq -2\quad \text{and}\quad \dfrac{2}{3}\neq -2,$ then lines from part A are not parallel to line a.

Since $-2\cdot \left(-\dfrac{3}{2}\right)=3\neq -1\quad \text{and}\quad -2\cdot \dfrac{2}{3}=-\dfrac{4}{3}\neq -1,$ both lines are not perpendicular to line a.

Answer 2: Neither parallel nor perpendicular to line a

Part C. The line parallel to the line 2x+5y=10 has the equation 2x+5y=b. This line passes through the point (5,-4), then

2·5+5·(-4)=b,

10-20=b,

b=-10.

Answer 3: 2x+5y=-10.

Part D. The slope of the line $y=\dfrac{x}{4}+5$ is $\dfrac{1}{4}.$ Then the slope of perpendicular line is -4 and the equation of the perpendicular line is y=-4x+b. This line passes through the point (2,7), then
