A ball is thrown straight up from the top of a building 124 ft tall with an initial velocity of 64 ft per second. The height s(t

) (in feet) of the ball from the ground, at time t (in seconds), is given by s(t) = 124 + 64t − 16t2. Find the maximum height attained by the ball.

Answer:

246 ft is the maximum height

Step-by-step explanation:

The height h given above is a quadratic function. The graph of h as a function of time t gives a parabolic shape and the maximum height h occur at the vertex of the parabola. For a quadratic function of the form h = a t² + bt + c, the vertex is located at t = - b / 2a. Hence for h given above the vertex in the question s(t) = 124 + 64t − 16t², is at t

t = -64/2(-16) = 64/32 = 2 seconds

Thus, 2 seconds after the object was thrown, it reaches its highest point (maximum value of h) which is given by

h = -16(2)² + 64 (2) + 124 = 246eet

Each of the linear factors occurs precisely once, so the sign of the given rational expression will change at each of the points where one of the linear factors is zero. That is at:

x

=

−

,

−

1

,

2

,

4

Note that when

x

is large, the

x

2

terms will dominate the values of the numerator and denominator, making both positive.

Hence the sign of the value of the rational expression in each of the intervals

and

follows the pattern

. Hence the intervals

and

(

)

are both part of the solution set.

When

x

=

−

1

or

x

=

4

, the denominator is zero so the rational expression is undefined. Since the numerator is non-zero at those values, the function will have vertical asymptotes at those points (and not satisfy the inequality).

When

x

=

−

3

or

x

=

2

, the numerator is zero and the denominator is non-zero. So the function will be zero and satisfy the inequality at those points.

Hence the solution is:

x

Pyramid A has a square base with side lengths of 6 meters, and 4 triangular sides with a base of 6 meters and height of 7 meters
Fudgin [204]

Step-by-step explanation:

6 times 9 is 54.

54 divided by 2 is 27 volume ( recipitor) is 27 for no.1

6 times 7 is 42

42 divided by 2 is 21 is the recipitor or volume for no.2

there fore a has a bigger base surface

as base is measured by recipitorial angles

sorry if this isnt the right answer or what u wanted but I know it this way
