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.

Given f(x) = 2x^2 -3x and g(x) = x+4
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

2x³ + 5x² - 12x

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer doesn't seem to be listed...

(fg)(x) = (2x² - 3x)(x + 4)

Which equals...

2x²(x) + 2x²(4) + (-3x)(x) + (-3x)(4)

Which simplifies to...

2x³ + 8x² - 3x² - 12x

     2x³ + 5x² - 12x

Suppose m = 2 + 6i, and | m + n | = 3√10, where n is a complex number.
Ksju [112]

Answer: a) √50

b) n = 1 + 7i

Step-by-step explanation:

first, the modulus of a complex number z = a + bi is

IzI = √(a^2 + b^2)  

The fact that n is complex does not mean that n doesn't has a real part, so we must write our numbers as:

m = 2 + 6i

n = a  + bi

Im + nI = 3√10

Im + n I = √(a^2 + b^2 + 2^2 + 6^2)= 3√10

            = √(a^2 + b^2 + 40) = 3√10

             a^2 + b^2 + 40 = 3^2*10 = 9*10 = 90

             a^2 + b^2 = 90 - 40 = 50

            √(a^2 + b^2 ) = InI = √50

The modulus of n must be equal to the square root of 50.

now we can find any values a and b such a^2 + b^2 = 50.

for example, a = 1 and b = 7

1^2 + 7^2 = 1 + 49  = 50

Then a possible value for n is:

n = 1 + 7i
