A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 36 ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function

h = −16t2 + 36t + 5. In how many seconds does the ball reach its maximum height? Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. What is the ball’s maximum height?

This can be solved in two ways: With heavy tools or with just algebra. 
What is your level? Have you studied calculus? 

With pure algebra: 
We need to find the maximum of the function <span>h = −16t^2 + 36t + 5
Lets take out -1 for simplicity: 
</span><span>h = −(16t2 - 36t - 5) 
For now lets just work with this: </span>16t^2 - 36t - 5
16t^2=(4t)^2 
(4t-x)^2= 16t^2-2*4xt+x^2
we have -36t so x should be 4.5 as 2*4*4.5=36

Lets see what we have now:
16t^2 - 36t - 5= (4t-4.5)^2 is this true? No but close
(4t-4.5)^2= 16t^2- 2*4*4.5t +4.5^2= 16t^2-36t+20.25

16t^2 - 36t - 5   and 16t^2-36t+20.25 nearl the same just take away 25.25 from the right hand side

Getting long, just stay with me: 
16t^2 - 36t - 5= (4t-4.5)^2 - 25.25

h= -{(4t-4.5)^2 -25.25}
h=-(4t-4.5)^2 + 25.25

We want to find the maximum of this function. -(4t-4.5)^2 this bit is always negative or 0, so it maximum is when it is 0. Solve: 4t-4.5=0
t=1,125

16 square meters is equivalent o how many square yards
Marat540 [252]

Answer: 19.13 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition,  you have that 1 square meter is equal to 1.19599 square yards. You can express it as following:

1 m²= 1.19599 yd²

2. Then, keeping the information above on mind, you can make the conversion from 16 m² to yd² as it is shown below:

(16m^2)(\frac{1.19599yd^2}{1m^2})=19.13yd^2

Therefore, you have that 16 m² is equivalent to 19.13 yd².

65+ 6x + 3x + 9 + 65=180
Ierofanga [76]
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.<span><span><span><span><span>65+6x</span>+3x</span>+9</span>+65</span>=180
</span>
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.<span><span><span><span><span>65+6x</span>+3x</span>+9</span>+65</span>=180
</span><span><span><span>(<span>6x+3x</span>)</span>+<span>(<span>65+9+65</span>)</span></span>=180 </span>(Combine Like Terms)
<span><span><span>
9x</span>+139</span>=180</span><span><span>9x+139</span>=180
</span>
Step 2: Subtract 139 from both sides.
<span><span><span><span>
9x</span>+139</span>−139</span>=180−139</span><span>9x=41
</span>
Step 3: Divide both sides by 9.
<span><span>9x/9</span>=<span>41/9
</span></span><span> x=<span>41/9
 And finally you divided by 41/9 
Answer is x= 4.555556

14.30 - 1.95 = 12.35
Maria spend $12.35 on songs, to find out how many songs, you divide that by $.95
12.35 \div .95 = 13
