A model rocket is fired from the ground at time t=0, and it’s height is given in cm by the formula h=-490t^2 +1470t where t is m

easured in seconds.
Write an equation to find when the height of the rocket is 980 cm.


Solve the equation by factoring.

Step-by-step explanation:

h = -490t² + 1470t

When h = 980:

980 = -490t² + 1470t

Simplifying:

0 = -490t² + 1470t - 980

0 = t² - 3t + 2

Factoring:

0 = (t - 1) (t - 2)

t = 1, 2

There are two solutions because the rocket first reaches the height of 980 cm as it's going up at 1 second, then it reaches that height again as it's coming down at 2 seconds.

Given/equations formed from text:
I: l=w+3
II: A=l*w
III: new area B=(l-2)*w
IV: B=A-30

substitute l in II with I to remove l:
II': A=l*w=
(w+3)*w=
w^2+3w

substitute l in III with I to remove l:
III': B=(l-2)*w=
(w+3-2)*w=
(w+1)*w=
w^2+w

substitute A and B from II' and III' into IV:
B=A-30
w^2+w=w^2+3w-30
30=2w
w=15

insert w=15 into I:
l=15+3=18
->
A) dimensions of full size rectangle are width 15 and length 18
dimensions of reduced size rectangle are width 15 and length 16

B) full size: 15*18=10*18+5*18=180+90=270cm^2
reduced size: 15*16=10*16+5*16=160+80=240cm^2
