A soccer ball is kicked toward the goal. The height of the ball is modeled by the function h(t) = −16t2 + 48t where t equals the

time in seconds and h(t) represents the height of the ball at time t seconds. What is the axis of symmetry, and what does it represent? (2 points) t = 1.5; it takes 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 3 seconds to fall back to the ground t = 1.5; it takes 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 1.5 seconds to fall back to the ground t = 3; it takes 3 seconds to reach the maximum height and 3 seconds to fall back to the ground t = 3; it takes 3 seconds to reach the maximum height and 6 seconds to fall back to the ground

1. The function h(t)=-16t^{2}+48t is a parabola of the form ax^{2}+bx. The the formula for the axis of symmetry of a parabola is x= \frac{-b}{2a}. We can infer from our function that a=-16 and b=48, so lets replace those values in our formula:
x= \frac{-b}{2a}
x= \frac{-48}{-2(16)}
x= \frac{-48}{-32}
x= \frac{3}{2}
x=1.5
We can conclude that to the left of the line of symmetry the ball is reaching its maximum height, and to the right of the line of symmetry the ball is falling.

2. Lets check how much time the ball takes to reach its maximum height and return to the ground. To do that we are going to set the height equal to zero:
0=-16t^{2}+48t
-16t(t-3)=0
t=0 or t-3=0
t=0 or t=3
From our previous point we know that the ball reaches its maximum time at t=1.5, which means that <span>it takes 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 1.5 seconds to fall back to the ground.</span>

Answer:

the answer is D.

t = 1.5; It takes the ball 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 1.5 seconds to fall back to the ground.

Suppose that the dollar cost of producing x radios is c(x) = 400 + 20x - 0.2x 2. Find the marginal cost when 30 radios are produ
My name is Ann [436]
C(x) = 400 + 20x - 0.2x²

c(30) = 400 + 20(30) - 0.2(30)²

= 400 + 600 - 0.2(900)
= 1000 - 180
= 820

It costs $820 when 30 radios are produced. 

Marginal cost is how much it would cost to make one MORE of the same product so now we find how much it costs to produce 31 radios and compare the two. 

c(31) = 400 + 20(31) - 0.2(31)²

= 400 + 620 - 0.2(961)
= 1020 - 192.2
= 827.8 or ≈828.

Now we find the difference which means we subtract the two. 

828 - 820 = 8. 

Your marginal cost is $8. 

To compare we can also do 29 radios. 

c(29) = 400 + 20(29) - 0.2(29)² = 811.8 or ≈812

820 - 812 = 8.

Two integers, a and b, have a product of 24. What is the least possible sum of a and b?
rjkz [21]
The least possible sum is 10.

The pairs of factors for 24 are (1,24), (2,12), (3,8), (4,6) with sums 25, 14, 11, 10. So the numbers are 4 and 6.
