Answer:

Reaches a maximum height of 235.00 feet in 3.75 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the boulder, h,  in feet after t seconds is given by the function is given by :

h=-16t^2+120t+10 .....(1)

For maximum height, put \dfrac{dh}{dt}=0

i.e.

\dfrac{d(-16t^2+120t+10)}{dt}=0\\\\-32t+120=0\\\\32t=120\\\\t=3.75\ s

Put t = 3.75 in equation (1). So,

h=-16(3.75)^2+120(3.75)+10\\\\h=235\ \text{feet}

So, the boulder's maximum height is 235 feets and it takes 3.75 s to reach to its maximum height.

A car travels 250 km east, then turns 25° south of east and goes 115 km. What is the resultant distance traveled?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The distance traveled is 357.54km.

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation is illustrated in the figure attached.

From the law of cosines the distance d is given by

d^2 = (250km)^2+(115km)^2-2(250km)(115km)cos(155^o)

d^2 = 127837.698 km^2

\boxed{d = 357.54km}

Graph the linear equation to -2x+7y=-21
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

This equation is in standard form, so to make graphing easier you need to put it in y=mx+b form or slope, intercept form.

Step-by-step explanation:

I have attached a photo of what the graph would look like.

However, in the future you should know how to turn this into a slope intercept equation.

-2x+7y=-21

+2x        +2x

7y=2x-21

divide the entire equation by 7

y= 2/7x-3

That is a full equation in slope intercept form.

Hopefully this helps!
