Answer:

B. x=-6 or x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, factor the equation x^2-2x-48. Since -48 is negative, one of the factors has to be negative and one has to be positive. Since the coefficient of x is -2, the factors have to sum to -2. Trying factors, we realize that (x-8)(x+6)=0 works. Solving, x-8=0 and x+6=0, or x=8 or x=-6.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

45 m

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>

<u>Function to produce the stone's height</u>

h(x)= -5(x-1)^2+45

Maximum value the given function can get is at (x - 1) = 0 ⇒ x = 1

because the -5(x - 1)² can get maximum value of zero as the square of any number is zero or positive

<u>So maximum height is </u>

h(-1) = 45 m
