Answer:

Therefore,

3.5 s long was the rocket in the air.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A rocket is launched from the ground.

Height function for Rocket is given as

y=-16x^{2}+56x

Where,

y = height in function with x as time in second

To Find:

How long is the rocket in the air, x =?

Solution:

Expression is given

y=-16x^{2}+56x

So for time in air put y = 0 in above Expression

0=-16x^{2}+56x

16x^{2}-56x=0\\16x(x-3.5)=0\\16x=0\ or\ x-3.5 = 0\\x=0\ or\ x= 3.5

x cannot be negative

∴ x = 3.5 sec.

Therefore,

3.5 s long was the rocket in the air.

A farmer caught some wild pigs to use as founders for a domestic herd. The farmer wants all of her pigs to have one distinctive
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: Breed for black-haired pigs

Step-by-step explanation:

Now according to the statement, the farmer catches  wild pigs and mostly are brown.

Since black hair is dominant over brown and also black and brown are dominant over red,  this implies that red is the least dominant color meaning if breeding occurs, there would be less chance of getting red colored pigs.

She wants to breed either black or red haired pigs and since black is more dominant so she should breed the black ones with the brown ones or with themselves so she would eventually get pure-breeding herd i.e. of black color.
