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.

36x^3a+45xa^2=9xa( ) complete the statement.
Dafna1 [17]
9xa is the common factor.

You can complete the statement by dividing the two terms of the expression of the left side by 9xa, and you will get:

36x^3a + 45xa^2 = 9xa ( 4x^2 + 5a)

What is 15/8 written in a mixed number?<br><br><br>Sorry I'm just bad at math :/​
Valentin [98]

The mixed number is 1 and 7/8 because 15 minus 8 equals 7/8 and since you went over the whole (8/8) it is 1 plus 7/8 which equals 1 and 7/8.

It's okay that you might not be good in math that's why we will help.

How does the volume of a cone change if its radius and height are both tripled
Evgesh-ka [11]
The volume formula could be re-written to help understand this, as V = π*3r^2*3h. If you solve for this, you can conclude that the volume would be multiplied by 27.
