The graph h = −16t^2 + 25t + 5 models the height and time of a ball that was thrown off of a building where h is the height in f

eet and t is the time in seconds. At about what time did the ball reach the maximum and minimum height? How would I graph this as well?

Answer:

part 1) 0.78 seconds

part 2) 1.74 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

At about what time did the ball reach the maximum?

Let

h ----> the height of a ball in feet

t ---> the time in seconds

we have

h(t)=-16t^{2}+25t+5

This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex represent a maximum

so

The x-coordinate of the vertex represent the time when the ball reach the maximum

Find the vertex

Convert the equation in vertex form

Factor -16

h(t)=-16(t^{2}-\frac{25}{16}t)+5

Complete the square

h(t)=-16(t^{2}-\frac{25}{16}t+\frac{625}{1,024})+5+\frac{625}{64}

h(t)=-16(t^{2}-\frac{25}{16}t+\frac{625}{1,024})+\frac{945}{64}\\h(t)=-16(t^{2}-\frac{25}{16}t+\frac{625}{1,024})+\frac{945}{64}

Rewrite as perfect squares

h(t)=-16(t-\frac{25}{32})^{2}+\frac{945}{64}

The vertex is the point (\frac{25}{32},\frac{945}{64})

therefore

The time when the ball reach the maximum is 25/32 sec or 0.78 sec

step 2

At about what time did the ball reach the minimum?

we know that

The ball reach the minimum when the the ball reach the ground (h=0)

For h=0

0=-16(t-\frac{25}{32})^{2}+\frac{945}{64}

16(t-\frac{25}{32})^{2}=\frac{945}{64}

(t-\frac{25}{32})^{2}=\frac{945}{1,024}

square root both sides

(t-\frac{25}{32})=\pm\frac{\sqrt{945}}{32}

t=\pm\frac{\sqrt{945}}{32}+\frac{25}{32}

the positive value is

t=\frac{\sqrt{945}}{32}+\frac{25}{32}=1.74\ sec

Anarel [89]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that MP and PL are congruent, as are MQ and QN. Using scale factors, we can conclude that the scale factor from MP to ML is 1:2.

Based on SAS similarity, MPQ and MLN are similar, so their sides are proportional.

Suppose the average yearly salary of an individual whose final degree is a​ master's is ​$43 thousand less than twice that of an
natka813 [3]

Answer:

A person who holds a master's degree would earn an average $63,000

A person who holds a bachelor's only would earn an average $53,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We will need to construct equations from the sentences.

Firstly, let the yearly average for a master's degree holder be m and that of bachelor's be b.

Now, we know that someone with a master's earn 43000 less than twice what someone with bachelors earn.

Mathematically,

m = 2b - 43,000

Combined, they have an average salary of 116,000

Mathematically,

m + b = 116,000

Now we have 2 equations to solve simultaneously.

m = 2b - 43,000 ......(i)

m + b = 116,000 .......(ii)

We can sub I into ii

2b - 43,000 + b = 116,000

2b+b = 116,000 + 43,000

3b = 159,000

b = 159,000/3 = 53,000

m = 2b - 43,000

m = 2(53,000) - 43,000 = 63,000

Which value for x makes the sentence true? 12x-5 = 5x + 23<br><br> A. 6<br> B. 9<br> C. 4 <br> D. -1
hammer [34]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plug in 4 to the equation it looks like this:

48-5= 20+23. Subtract 5 and add 23, to get 43=43. That statement is true so it's 4.

The birth rate of a population is b(t) = 2300e0.021t people per year and the death rate is d(t)= 1450e0.018t people per year, fi
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

38,674.This area represents the increase in population over a 10-year period.

Step-by-step explanation:

When graphed over the interval 0 ≤ t ≤ 10, the birth rate is more than the death rate. This means the area between the two curves is the amount of births subtract the amount of deaths. This results in an area which means the increase of the population.

The birth rate is graphed in green and the death rate is graphed in blue.

To find the area, take the integral of the difference of the functions:

\int\limits^{10}_0 {2300e^{0.021t} - 1450e^{0.018t} } \, dt \\\\\frac{2300e^{0.021t}}{0.021} -  \frac{1450e^{0.018t}}{0.018} \\\\(\frac{2300e^{0.21}}{0.021} -\frac{1450e^{0.18}}{0.018} ) - (\frac{2300}{0.021}- \frac{1450}{0.018} ) \\\\135117.12 - 96442.51 \\\\38,674
