Answer:

  5 1/16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

  h(t) = -16t(t -18/16) . . . . put in intercept form

The function describes a parabola that opens downward. It has zeros at t=0 and t=9/8. The maximum height will be found at the vertex of the parabola, halfway between these zeros.

  f(9/16) = (-16)(9/16)² +18(9/16) = 81/16 = 5 1/16 . . . . feet

The approximate maximum height of the leopard is 5 1/16 feet.

Help please!!! I really don’t know how to do this!
AysviL [449]

Answer:

I'm going to do 1 as an example and using what I've taught you, you have to do the rest. Hope my explanation helps.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the points (-2, -4) and (-1, -1)

We need to find the slope.

The equation to do so is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

lest say:

-2 is x1

-4 is y1

-1 is x2

-1 is y2

-1 - (-4) / -1 - (-2)

3/1 = 3

slope (m) = 3

We already know the y-intercept is 2

The equation of a line is y = mx + b

For this problem we just have to substitute what we already know.

y = (slope)x + y-intercept

y = 3x + 2

*TIP*

If the y-intercept is negative, let's say: b = -5  (using slope 8)

the equation will be y = 8x - 5

Hope this helps. I wish you all the best. :)

Ameekah is working with consecutive integers
Irina-Kira [14]

Consecutive numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

As we can see it's the latest plus 1

So,

x, x + 1, x + 1 + 1, x + 1 + 1 + 1

x, x + 1, x + 2, x + 3 and so on

So it's x + 1.

And angle measures 54° more than the measure of its complementary angle what is the measure of each angle
Mashutka [201]
Answer:
The measure of the angles are 72 degrees and 18 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two angles are complementary, then their sum is equal to 90 degrees
Let
x -----> the measure of an angle
y-----> the measure of he other angle
we know that
x+y=90 -----> y=90-x -----> equation A
x=y+54 ----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y
y=90-(y+54)
y=90-y-54
2y=36
y=18°
Find the value of x
x=y+54 -----> x=18+54=72°
therefore
The measure of the angles are 72 degrees and 18 degrees
