Answer:

-18

Step-by-step explanation:

The tall sticks around n+5 are absolute value signs. Basically, all you need to do is work out what the answer to the problem is inside the signs, then make whatever the answer is positive, then multiply by -9.

-7 + 5 = -2 (that turns into 2)

-9 x 2 = -18

A fastball is hit straight up over home plate. The ball's height, h (in feet), from the ground is modeled by ℎ = −16푡 ଶ+103푡+5 w

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Question:

A fastball is hit straight up over home plate. The ball's height, h (in feet), from the ground is modeled by h(t)=-16t^2+80t+5, where t is measured in seconds. Write an equation to determine how long it will take for the ball to reach the ground.

Answer:

$t = 5.0625$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$h(t)=-16t^2+80t+5$

Required

Find t when the ball hits the ground

This implies that h(t) = 0

So, we have:

$0=-16t^2+80t+5$

Reorder

$-16t^2+80t+5 = 0$

Using quadratic formula, we have:

$t = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

Where

$a = -16$ $b =80$ $c = 5$

So, we have:

$t = \frac{-80\±\sqrt{80^2 - 4*-16*5}}{2*-16}$

$t = \frac{-80\±\sqrt{6400 +320}}{-32}$

$t = \frac{-80\±\sqrt{6720}}{-32}$

$t = \frac{-80\±82.0}{-32}$

This gives:

$t = \frac{-80+82.0}{-32}$ or $t = \frac{-80-82.0}{-32}$

$t = \frac{2}{-32}$ or $t = \frac{-162}{-32}$

$t = -\frac{2}{32}$ or $t = \frac{162}{32}$

But time can not be negative.

So, we have:

$t = \frac{162}{32}$

$t = 5.0625$

<em>Hence, time to hit the ground is 5.0625 seconds</em>
