What is the maximum height of h(t)=-16t^2+16t+480

There's a negative in a, so it would have an invisible -1 multiplying the whole equation.
-1(16t^2-16t-480)
Then you take two numbers that multiply to 16*-480
and add to -16. Let's hide out the -1 for now until the end to make it easier for us.
In this case, it would be -96 and 80 because 16*-480 = -7680 and multiplying -96 by 80 results in same product while adding up to -16.
Then you put those numbers in.
(16t^2-96t+80t-480)
Start to factor them by adding brackets and using GCF to separate them.
(16t^2-96t)+(80t-480)
Again, with GCF to simplify even more.
16t(t-6)+80(t-6)
And re-arrange to form the numbers into factored form cause of distributive property.
(16t+80)(t-6)
GCF to simplify to lowest terms.
16(t+5)(t-6)
Bring back the -1 we hid.
-16(t+5)(t-6)
Important Note: in vertex and factored form, the plus/positive signs within the brackets mean left side into negative x-values, and negative signs within brackets mean right side into positive x-values. In this case, your x-intercepts/zeros are (-5,0) and (6,0).

A person can't go into negative time, so they start from 0 and hit into the positive number of the x-int, so that's (6,0). 6 seconds. Find midpoint by adding the two x-int and dividing by 2.
h= \frac{-5+6}{2} \\  \\ h= \frac{1}{2}
Take the midpoint and plug into your quadratic equation to find your max height. Use a calculator for this.

Lian needs to solve the quadratic equation: x^2 - 4x - 2 = 0. Which statement about how Lian should solve this equation is true?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

x = 4.45 or x = - 4.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the steps:

Substitute the values,

4+\sqrt{-4^2-4(1*-2)} ÷ 2 × 1

x = 2 ± √6

x = 4.45 or x = - 4.45

<em>good luck, i hope this helps :)</em>

The functions f (theta) and g (theta) are sine functions, where f (0) equals g (0) equals 0.The amplitude of f (theta) is twice
777dan777 [17]
If period of f(\theta) is one-half the period of g(\theta) and
<span>g(\theta)  has a period of 2π, then T_{g} =2T_{f}=2 \pi and T_{f}= \pi.
</span>
To find the period of sine function f(\theta)=asin(b\theta+c) we use the rule T_{f}= \frac{2\pi}{b}.
<span /><span />
f is sine function where f (0)=0, then c=0; with period \pi, then f(\theta)=asin 2\theta, because T_{f}= \frac{2 \pi }{2} = \pi. 

To find a we consider the condition f( \frac{ \pi }{4} )=4, from where asin2* \frac{\pi}{4} =a*sin \frac{ \pi }{2} =a=4.

If the amplitude of f(\theta) is twice the amplitude of g(\theta) , then g(\theta) has a product factor twice smaller than f(\theta) and while period of g(\theta)<span> </span> is 2π and g(0)=0, we can write g(\theta)=2sin\theta.
