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
In this problem, we let x be the number of half gallons of milk the store bought, and x-12 be the remaining half gallonsWe use the equation profit = revenue-cost
88.08=4.02(x-12)-2.60x88.08=4.02x-48.24-2.6x1.42x=88.08+48.24=136.32x=136.32/1.42=96Hence, the number of half gallons of milk the store bought is 96

After x weeks:
Jules will have: 1,200 + 40 x.
Kelsey will have: 400 + 50 x.
If we want to know in how many weeks will they have the same amount of money, we will make an equation:
400 + 50 x = 1,200 + 40 x
50 x - 40 x = 1,200 - 400
10 x = 800
x = 800 : 10
x = 80
Answer: In 80 weeks they will have the same amount of money.
