Answer:
- time = 1second
- maximum height = 16m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the height of a pumpkin t seconds after it is launched from a catapult modelled by the equation
f(t)=-16t²+32t... (1)
The pumpkin reaches its maximum height when the velocity is zero.
Velocity = {d(f(x)}/dt = -32t+32
Since v = 0m/s (at maximum height)
-32t+32 = 0
-32t = -32
t = -32/-32
t = 1sec
The pumpkin reaches its maximum height after 1second.
Maximum height of the pumpkin is gotten by substituting t = 1sec into equation (1)
f(1) = -16(1)²+32(1)
f(1) = -16+32
f(1) = 16m
The maximum height of the pumpkin is 16m
Hello,
Answer A
s(x)=3x-7
s(2t-4)=3*(2t-4)-7=6t-12-7=6t-19
Yes. Changing the the word problem into a function, you get 30x=y.
30 = Fixed Length
x = width
y = area
No matter what width (x) you choose, the area (y) is going to be a multiple of 30 (the fixed length) because with two numbers being multiplied, if there is a fixed number that will always be the multiple and not the multiplier. For example, 10 multiplied by every number 1-10 is going to be a multiple of 10.
10x1=10, 10x2=20, 10x3=30, etc
So if Tom chooses any of these widths (x) 5, 10, or 15, y (the area) will be a multiple of 30.
30(5)=150
30(10)=300
30(15)=450
So as we double 5 to get 10, our outcome is doubled 150 to 300 and so forth. Hope this helps.
It's a parabolic curve, so quadratic is best
Circumference of circular path=pi*d^2/4
=44.156
length of light=1.45
light needed=44.156/1.45
=31 approx
