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.

The following graph shows a proportional relationship.
LenKa [72]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look at the graph this is an increasing graph where y increases with respect to x so in other words we can say that y is directly proportional to x.

y\ \alpha\ x\\

and when we remove the proportionality sign we replace it with an equal to sign and a constant. So it becomes ,

y = kx\\

now to find the Constant of proportionality which is k we can use any ordered pair(coordinate/point) from the graph,

Lets take ( 2 , 4) where 2 represents the value of x on the x-axis and 4 represents the value of y on the y-axis so now,

y=kx\\(4)=k(2)\\4=2k\\4/2=k\\k=2\\

so the constant of proportionality is 2

Need help idk how to slove this
Gemiola [76]

Hi!

I'm not sure how to slove this, but I do know how to solve it ;D

<h3>We can't know the exact value of y, but we can isolate y on one side. First, multiply by z on both sides. </h3>

\frac{x+y}{z*z}=3*z

x + y = 3 * z

<h3>Now subtract x from both sides.</h3>

x - x + y = 3 * z - x

<u>y = 3 * z - x</u>

<h2>The answer is y = 3 * z - x</h2>

Hope this helps! :)
