An object is propelled vertically upward from the top of a​ 256-foot building. The quadratic function​ s(t) = ​-16t squared ​+ 1

92t​ + 256 models the​ ball's height above the​ ground, s(t), in​ feet, t seconds after it was thrown. How many seconds does it take until the object finally hits the​ ground? Round to the nearest tenth of a second if necessary. A. 6 seconds

Answer: t= 13.2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic function for ball's height in terms of time t is given as

s(t)= -16t² +192t + 256

Now we want to find out the time at which the ball hits the ground.

When the ball hits the ground, the height of the ball will become zero so in the above equation we can put s(t)=0

0= -16t² +192t + 256

or 16t² -192t - 256 = 0

Solving this quadratic equation, we have

t= 13.211 and t= -1.211

Since time can't be negative so

t= 13.2 seconds

Mark charges 100.00 for an encoding work. In addition, he charges 5.00 per page of printed output.​
o-na [289]

The total amount charged for each work can be expressed by the equation : 100 + 5x

Fixed charged per work = 100.00

Charge per page printed = 5.00

<u>Let the number pages printed be represented as x :</u>

Total amount charged for n pages can be related thus :

Fixed charge per work + (cost per page × number of pages)

100 + 5x

Therefore, the total amount charged can be expressed with the equation 100 + 5x

Write an equation for the parabola whose vertex is at (4, 12) and which passes through (5, 21)
laiz [17]

Answer:

y - 12 = 9(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex (h, k) is (4, 12) and the point (5, 21) is on the graph.  Assuming that this is a vertical parabola, opening up (because the coordinate 21 is greater than the coordinate 12), we insert the knowns into  y - k = a(x - h)^2, obtaining

21 - 12 = a(5 - 4), or  9 = a.  With a known, we can write the desired equation:

y - 12 = 9(x - 4)

Solve 2(a + 7) = 5a - 13
timurjin [86]

Answer:

a = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

2(a + 7) = 5a - 13

We want to bring a to one side, I will choose to bring it to the right

First, expand the bracket by multiplying 2 with a + 7

2a + 14 = 5a - 13

Bring the -13 to the left by adding 13 to both sides

2a + 14 + 13 = 5a - 13 + 13

Simplify

2a + 27 = 5a

Bring the 2a to the right by subtracting 2a from both sides

2a - 2a + 27 = 5a - 2a

Simplify

27 = 5a - 2a

27 = 3a

Bring the 3 to the left by dividing both sides by 3

27÷3 = a

Simplify

a = 9
