Answer:

h(x) = -16x² + 192x + 208

784ft

6 sec

13 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

h(x) = -16x² +vx + h_{o}

here v represent velocity

         h_{o} represent initial height of launch

       

h(x) = -16x² + 192x + 208

b)

h(x) = -16x² + 192x + 208

here a = -16

        b = 192

        c = 208

x = -b/2a

  = -192/2(-16)

  = 6

plug this value in the equation

h(x) = -16(6)² + 192(6) + 208

      = 784ft

e)

Plug h(x)=0 in the equation

0 = -16x² + 192x + 208

divide equation by -16

x² - 12x - 13 = 0

Factors

1x * -13x = -13

1x - 13x = -12

Factorised form

x² - 12x - 13 = 0

x² + x - 13x - 13 = 0

x(x+1) -13(x+1) = 0

(x+1)(x-13) = 0

x = -1

x = 13

Since time can not be negative so we will reject x = -1

If EG = 59, and EF = 8x - 14, while FG = 4x + 1
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

EG = 59

EF = 8x - 14

FG = 4x + 1

to find the value of x

EF + FG = EG (same line)

8x - 14 + 4x + 1 = 59

12x -13 = 59

12x = 59 + 13

12x = 72

x = 72 ÷ 12

x = 6

You can even cross check for correct answer

EF + FG = EG

instead of x place the x's value we got

8x - 14 + 4x + 1 = 59

8 (6) - 14 + 4 (6) + 1 = 59

48 - 14 + 24 + 1 = 59

34 + 25 = 59

59 = 59

katrin2010 [14]

Answer: (Mayadc821 wrote this anwser check theyre account for more)

Since you know the x and y values, you just have to plug these into the linear slope-intercept equation:

y = mx + b

-10 = m(1) + b

m + b = -10

b = -10 - m

Now that we have a value for b, we can plug this into the other equation:

8 = m(-8) + b

8 = -8m + (-10 - m)

8 = -9m -10

18 = -9m

m = -2

Now that we know what m is equal to, we can plug this into our first equation to get an answer for b:

b = -10 - m

b = -10 -(-2)

b = -10 + 2

b = -8

Our final equation is y = -2x - 8
