The velocity v and maximum height h of the water being pumped into the air are related by the equation v=\sqrt(2gh) where g is t

he acceleration due to gravity (32 feet/second^2). a. Determine the equation that will give the maximum height of the water as a function of its velocity b. The Mayfield Fire Department must purchase a pump that is powerful enough to propel water 80 feet in the air. Will a pump that is advertised to project water with a velocity of 75 feet/second meet the fire department’s needs? Explain.

The velocity v and maximum height h of the water being pumped into the air are related by the equation

v= \sqrt{2gh}

where g = 32

(a) To find the equation that will give the maximum height of the water , solve the equation for h

v= \sqrt{2gh}

Take square root on both sides

v^2 = 2gh

Divide by 2g on both sides

\frac{v^2}{2g} = h

So maximum height of the water h = \frac{v^2}{2g}

(b) Maximum height h= 80

velocity v= 75 ft/sec

Given g = 32

h = \frac{v^2}{2g}

h = \frac{75^2}{2*32}

h= 87.89 ft

The pump withe the velocity of 75 ft/sec reaches the maximum height of 87.89 feet. 87.86 is greater than the maximum height 80 feet.

So the pump will meet the fire department needs.

Consider the function represented by the equation y-6x-9=0. Which answer shows the equation written in function notation with x
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

A. f(x) = 6x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

y - 6x - 9 = 0

We have to write this equation in function notation with x as the independent variable. This means that y will be replaced by f(x) and all other terms will be carried to the other side of the equation to get the desired function notation.

y - 6x - 9 = 0

y = 6x + 9

f(x) = 6x + 9

Therefore, option A gives the correct answer.

The function of g(x)=8^2-48+65 written in vertex form is g(x)= 8(x-3)^2-7 what is the vertex of g(x)
Iteru [2.4K]
The vertex is where g(x) = 0 
i.e. where 8(x^3)^2-7 is equal to x
