Answer:

t as a function of height h is  t = √600 - h/16

The time to reach a height of 50 feet is 5.86 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Function for height is h(t) = 600 - 16t²

where t = time lapsed in seconds after an object is dropped from height of 600 feet

t  as a function of height h

replacing the function with variable h

h = 600 - 16t²

Solving for t

Subtracting 600 from both side

h - 600 = -16t²

Divide through by -16

600 - h/ 16 = t²

Take square root of both sides

√600 - h/16 = t

Therefore, t = √600 - h/16

Time to reach height 50 feet

t = √600 - h/16

substituting h = 50 in the equation

t = √600 - 50/16

t = √550/16

t= 34.375

t = 5.86 minutes

geniusboy [140]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

y=1500(0.937)^t

Explanation:

An exponential function is of the form

y=a\times b^x, where a is the initial population, b is 1 plus the amount of yearly change, and x is the number of years.

For our problem, a, the initial population, is 1500.

The yearly change is 6.3%; 6.3% = 6.3/100 = 0.063.  Since it is decreasing, this is negative; 1+(-0.063) = 0.937.

We use t as the number of years.

This gives us

y=1500(0.937)^t
