The line of symmetry through the parabola described by s(t) is

... t = -48/(2×(-16)) = 1.5

This is the time at which the ball reaches its maximum height.

... s(1.5) = 132 + 48×1.5 -16×1.5²

... s(1.5) = 132 + 72 - 36 = 168

The maximum height attained by the ball is 168 ft.

check the picture below.

so the maximum height of the ball is obtained at the vertex's y-coordinate, hmm what is it anyway?

$\bf \textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients}
\\\\
s(t)=132+48t-16t^2
\\\\\\
s(t)=\stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{-16}t^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+48}t\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{+132}
\qquad \qquad 
\left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}~~~~ ,~~~~ c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right)
\\\\\\
\left( \qquad ,~~132-\cfrac{48^2}{4(-16)} \right)\implies \left( \qquad ,~~132+\cfrac{2304}{64} \right)
\\\\\\
\left( \qquad ,~~132+36 \right)\implies (\quad ,~\stackrel{feet}{168})$

In the first diagram the value of k is 10 and in the second diagram the value of k is 15/2.

<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>

The triangle can be defined as a three-sided polygon in geometry, and it consists of three vertices and three edges. The sum of all the angles inside the triangle is 180°.

In the first diagram:

The sum of the 5k + 20 and 7k + 40 is 180

5k + 20 + 7k + 40 = 180

12k + 60 = 180

12k = 180 -60

12k = 120

k = 10

In the second diagram:

The sum of the two interior angles is equal to the exterior angle.

40 + 12k + 10 = 8k + 80

4k = 30

k = 30/4 = 15/2

Thus, in the first diagram the value of k is 10 and in the second diagram the value of k is 15/2.

The rectangular prism shown has a volume of 10 cubic centimeters, = 1 cm3 Choose all the rectangular prisms that also have a vol

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

B and C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a rectangular prism that consists of 10 cubes. Each cube = 1 cm³. The volume of rectangular prism given = 10cm³.

Let's find out which of the options has same volume (10cm³) as that of the given rectangular prism.

Option A has 15 cubes = 15 cm³ in volume

Option B has 10 cubes = 10 cm³ in volume

Option C has 10 cubes also = 10 cm³ in volume

Option D has 12 cubes = 12 cm³

The rectangular prisms that have the same volume (10 cm³) with the given rectangular prism are option B and C.

Graph the function.

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

$\displaystyle{y=-3x-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I have two methods: <u>standard-learning</u> which will explain overall mathematically - basically formula, etc. - while the other one <u>trick-tips</u> method will rely on choices rather mathematical calculations but with explanation on <em>why</em> and <em>how.</em>

<h3>Standard-Learning</h3>

First, let’s pick two points that are integers since they are easily to be found via graphs. We see that (-1,2) and (0,-1) is a part of the graph so now we finally have picked two points for our calculations.

When we have finally picked two points, we will be using them for <u>slope calculation</u>. This part is <u>crucial</u> for finding an equation of a line because a line has to contain slope in its equation.

To calculate the slope, we use rise over run formula which is:

$\displaystyle{\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}$

Note that $\displaystyle{\Delta}$ is delta - in both mathematic and physics, it means <u>changes in</u>.

So, we will be using those two points that we have picked to substitute in the slope formula. Let’s determine that $\displaystyle{(x_2,y_2)=(-1,2)}$ and $\displaystyle{(x_1,y_1)=(0,-1)}$ .

Therefore, our slope will be:

$\displaystyle{m=\dfrac{2-(-1)}{-1-0}}\\\\\displaystyle{m=\dfrac{2+1}{-1}}\\\\\displaystyle{m=-3}$

Next, find the y-intercept. From the graph, we see that the graph intercepts at (0,-1) which is y-intercept so we will only use y-value. Hence, b = -1.

From the slope-intercept form:

$\displaystyle{y=mx+b}$

Substitute m (slope) = -3 and b (y-intercept) = -1. Hence, the equation of line is:

$\displaystyle{y=-3x-1}$

<h3>Fast Way (Trick-Tips)</h3>

Relying on choices and knowledge of graph, notice that there are slopes of 3 and -3.

Keep in mind that if slope is negative, it will decrease down and if slope is positive, it will increase up.

Therefore, cut off all choices with positive slopes which are 1 and 3. We are now left with 2 and 4.

Next, look at the graph and tell its y-intercept. It intercepts y at y = -1 so we take value of -1.

So choice 4 is cut off and now we have choice 2 as the answer.

A cement walk 3 ft wide is placed around the outside of a rectangular garden plot that is 20ft by 30ft. Find the cost of the wal

Inessa05 [86]

Let us calculate the area of the walk.

Since the width of the walk is 3 feet, and the walk will be placed all the 4 sides,

Length of the plot including walk = 20 + (2 × 3) = 20 + 6 = 26 feet.

Breadth of the plot including walk = 30 + (2 × 3) = 36 feet.

Area of the plot including walk = 26 × 36 square feet.

Area of the plot = 20 × 30 square feet.

Area of the walk = (26 × 36) - (20 × 30)

= 936 - 600

= 336 square feet.

= $\frac{336}{3(3)}$ square yards

= 37.3 square yards

Cost of the walk per square yard = $12.25.

Therefore, total cost of the walk = 12.25 × 37.3 = $456.92.

Masja [62]

The value of t that makes the factor e^(.032t) have the value of 2 can be found using logarithms.
2 = e^(0.032t)
ln(2) = ln(e^(0.032t)) = 0.032t
t = ln(2)/0.032 ≈ 21.66

It would take 21.66 years for the cost to double.
