400x=22,000
22,000/400=x
55=x Hopefully this is right, and hopefully this helps
Answer:
They are at the same height at 1.13 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
The rockets are at the same height when f(x) = g(x) [see below] are the same. So you can equate them.
Givens
f(x) = - 16x^2 + 74x + 9
g(x) = -16x^2 + 82x I have changed this so you don't have 2 f(x)s
Solution
- f(x) = g(x)
- -16x^2 + 74x + 9 = -16x^2 + 82x Add: 16x^2 to both sides
- -16x^2+16x^2+74x + 9 = -16x^2+16x^2 + 82x Combine terms
- 74x + 9 = 82x Subtract 74x from both sides
- 74x - 74x + 9 = 82x - 74x Combine
- 9 = 8x Divide by 8
- 9/8 = 8x/8
- x = 1 1/8 Convert to decimal
- x = 1.125
- x = 1.13 [rounded]
Let one of the numbers be x. The other number cab then be represented as 36-x (x+36-x = 36).
The product can then be represented as y = x(36-x) or y=36x-x2
The maximum or minimum is always on the axis of symmetry which has the formula x=-b/2a.
In our case, the axis of symmetry is -36/-2, so x=18.
If one number is 18 and the 2 numbers add to 36, the other number is 18 as well.
So the 2 numbers are 18 and 18 and the maximum product is 324,
The 6 is in the thousandth place so you round with that being the last number
since we have a 55 after the 6, we round up
so we get
3,989.237
The right answer is A ! :)
