Answer:

A. 1 second ; 22 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 32 ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function h=-16t^2+32t+6.

a. To find the time it will take the ball to reach its maximum height, we need to find x-coordinate of vertex of our given parabola.

We will use \frac{-b}{2a} to find the x-coordinate of vertex of our given parabola.

\frac{-32}{2\times -16}

\frac{-2}{-2}=1

Therefore, the ball will reach its maximum after 1 second.

b. To find the ball's maximum height we need to evaluate our given equation at t=1.

h=-16(1)^2+32(1)+6

h=-16*1+32+6

h=-16+32+6

h=22

Therefore, the maximum height of ball is 22 ft.

Upon looking at our given choices we can see that option A is the correct choice.

Julie wrote the rate $108 in 6 weeks as a unit rate.Find her mistake and correct it.
natima [27]
Well for starters that would be $108/6 weeks when a unit rate is anything over one. To put it as a unit rate (how many dollars per hours) you just divide $108 by 6 (since you would divide 6 by 6 to get) and the unit rate would end up being $18 per hour.
