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

A || b what’s the value of X?
Anna007 [38]
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>
  • The value of x is 17.
<h3><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>

<u>We know that the lines are parallel because it is given that:</u>

  • a ∥ b

<u>Now, let's form an equation.</u>

  • => 2x + 5 + 8x + 5 = 180

<u>Let's solve!</u>

  • => 10x + 10 = 180
  • => 10x = 170
  • => x = 17

Hence, the value of x is 17.

Among the contestants in a competition are 50 women and 26 men. If 5 winners are randomly selected, qhat js the probability that
liq [111]

Answer:

Probability that all winner are men = 0.0035 (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of women = 50

Number of men = 26

Total number winner = 5

Find:

Probability that all winner are men

Computation:

Total competitor = 50 + 26 = 76

Probability that all winner are men = 26/76 x 25/75 x 24/74 x 23/73 x 22/72

Probability that all winner are men = 7,893,600 / 2,216,980,800

Probability that all winner are men = 0.0035 (Approx.)
