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

Mathematics

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.

Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 18.6 m and a base with a radius of 15.5 m. Round your answer to th
ExtremeBDS [4]

This one should have come before the other one. We apply the cone formula

V = \frac 1 3 \pi r^2 h

V = \frac 1 3 \pi(15.5)^2 (18.6) \approx 4679.6 \textrm{ cubic meters}

A company makes Poppy Lapel Pins.
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

1000 less 35% == 650

so 250 given to charity

total cost making the pins was 1000x 1.10 = 1100

so you need to find 60 percent of 650 =390

and 40 percent of 650 = 260

so then you need to find the cost 390 x 3 pounds each so × this and gives you 1170 cost sold for intotal

Then you have 260 ÷2 = 130 x 5 = 650

so you have 650+1170 = 1820 - 1100 cost to make =720 pounds

think this right
