Selena is standing on a rock cliff that is 52 feet high. She tosses a pebble upward over the edge, where it hits the top of a 12

foot high boulder. The quadratic equation that models the path of the pebble is given below. How long did it take for the pebble to hit the top of the boulder? p(t)=-16t^2+12t+52​

Answer: At t=\dfrac{3}{8}, the pebble hit the top of the boulder.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Distance at which Selena is standing on a rock cliff = 52 feet

Height of boulder above a rock cliff = 12 foot

So, the given quadratic equation would be

p(t)=-16t^2+12t+52

First we derivative it w.r.t  t,

p'(t)=-32t+12

Now, we will find the critical value,

-32t+12=0\\\\-32t=-12\\\\t=\dfrac{12}{32}=\dfrac{6}{16}=\dfrac{3}{8}

Now, we will check whether it is maximum or not.

p''(t)=-32

So, we get that it is maximum.

Hence, at t=\dfrac{3}{8}, the pebble hit the top of the boulder.

Which triangles can have two sides of the same lenghth
alisha [4.7K]

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with 2 congruent sides. The congruent sides are called legs and the third side is called the base. So if 2 sides of a triangle have the same length, then we say that the triangle is isosceles.
