Answer:
it could be -50.35 and 50.35 since the absolute value is just the positive value of the number
8.4617....
Hope this helped you :)
98 - x² = 0
x² = 98
x = ±√98
Lets factor 98
98 | 2
49 | 7
7 | 7
1
So, 98 = 2 . 7 . 7 = 2 . 7²
x = ±√2.7²
x = ±7√2
The ball takes approximately a time of 2.041 seconds to reach its maximum height.
<h3>What time does the ball take to reach maximum height?</h3>
The height of the ball as a function of time is modelled by a <em>quadratic</em> equation, the required information can be found by transforming the expression into <em>vertex</em> form:
h = - 4.9 · t² + 20 · t + 12
h = - 4.9 · (t² - 4.082 · t - 2.449)
h + (- 4.9) · (6.615) = - 4.9 · (t² - 4.082 · t + 4.166)
h - 32.414 = - 4.9 · (t - 2.041)²
The ball takes approximately a time of 2.041 seconds to reach its maximum height.
