Answer:

The stone will be in flight for 3 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation;

d = -16t^2 + vt + h

Where;

v = the initial velocity

h = the initial height

Given;

v = 48 ft/s

h = 0

Substituting into function d;

d = -16t^2 + 48t + 0

d = -16t^2 + 48t

At the point of launch and the point of landing d = 0.

We need to calculate the values of t for d to be equal to zero.

d = -16t^2 + 48t = 0

-16t^2 + 48t = 0

Factorising, we have;

16(-t+3)t = 0

So,

t = 0 or -t+3 = 0

t= 0 or t =3

Change in t is;

∆t = t2 - t1 = 3 - 0

∆t = 3 seconds.

The stone will be in flight for 3 seconds.

1, a.) The two specific conjectures are in the first image.

1, b.) The two general conjectures are in the second image.

2, a.) Two specific conjectures for this pattern are:

  • The common difference between two consecutive terms is 3.
  • And the given difference is A.P.

2, b.) From our observation two general conjecture is that the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence and the common difference is 3.

For finding its nth term we can use the formula: a(n) = a + (n-1) x d.

2, c.) A formula for the given pattern is 5 + (n-1)3, where n is the number of the term.
