Answer:

  671 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to figure this. One is to use a sort of shortcut equation to find the distance traveled (d) by an object when subject to some initial velocity (v) and acceleration (a). Here the acceleration due to gravity is -32 ft/s².

  v² = 2ad

  d = v²/(2a) = (192 ft/s)^2/(2·32 ft/s²) = 576 ft

This height is in addition to the starting height of 95 ft, so the arrow's maximum height is ...

  max height = 95 ft + 576 ft = 671 ft

__

Another way to work this problem is to start with the equation for ballistic motion. Filling in the given initial velocity and height, we have ...

  h(t) = -16t^2 +192t +95

The time the arrow reaches the maximum height is the time representing the axis of symmetry of the parabola:

  t = -(192)/(2(-16)) = 6

Then the maximum height is ...

  h(6) = -16·6^2 +192·6 +95 = 671

The maximum height is 671 feet.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

For the standard-form quadratic ...

  y = ax^2 +bx +c

The axis of symmetry is ...

  x = -b/(2a)

4/5-3/7. First they need the same denominater: 4/5(7)=28/35, 3/7(5)=15/35. 28/35-15/35. Now subtract numerators: 28-15=13. So your answer H. 13/35 :)

7.) the equation of the circle is
(x - 3)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 25

If you substitute the point in you get
(6-3)^2 + (8-4)^2 = 25
3^2 + 4^2 = 25
9 + 16 = 25
25 = 25

Both sides of the equation are the same so it proves it lies on the circle

8.) you add the x coordinates together and divide by 2
7 + 4 = 11
11/2 = 5.5
You use +7 because you need to find the midpoint.
You then add 5.5 to - 7 or - 5.5 from 4
-7 + 5.5 = - 1.5

You do the same for y coordinates
6+5 = 11
11/2 = 5.5
6-5.5 = 0.5

So the coordinates of Rachel's house are
(-1.5, 0.5)
