Since you are given the function for the height of a rocket, we are to look for the value of X that gives us a value of p(x) = 0, which means that the model rocket has landed back onto the ground. One easy way to do this is by table method, meaning we substitute values of x to see if we can obtain the needed value of P(x). We should start from 1, since using 0 as our first value means that the rocket has not even launched up yet. Let us do this below:

x | <span>p(x) = -16x^2+32x
--------------------------
1 | p(1) = -16(1)^2 + 32(1) = 16
</span><span>2 | p(2) = -16(2)^2 + 32(2) = 0
</span>
Having obtained the desired result at x = 2, this means that the model rocket has been in the air for 2 seconds.

Answer:

$53,725.43

Step-by-step explanation:

X = year

A = Beg. of Year Value

B= slope

Find the common ratio by dividing two close years together, preferably the beginning value and the first year: 31,800/30,000.

Common ratio (or slope) = 1.06

So the expression, substituting 10 for x:

30,000(1.06)^10

We have two points:
(-3,5) and (2,-3)

I
An equation in oint-slope form has this shape:
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
m=slope

1) we compute the slope (m) between two points:
Given two points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) the slope between these pointw will be.
m=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

In this case, our slope would be:
m=(-3-5)/(2+3)=-8/5

2) we choose one of these points and replace it in the equation, the result will be the same:
(-3,5)
<span>y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
</span>y-5=-8/5(x+3)

Answer: y-5=-8/5(x+3)
