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

a driver is below the surface of the water at - 15m. he dives down by 6m, then rises 4m where is he now​
nevsk [136]

Given:

A driver is below the surface of the water at - 15m. he dives down by 6m, then rises 4m.

To find:

The current location of the driver.

Solution:

In this problem, negative sign is used for downward direction or the distance below the surface of the water.

Initial location = -15 m

Dives down by 6m, it means - 6m,  then rises 4m, it means 4 m.

Now, the current location is

-15 m-6m+4m

=-21m+4m

=-17m

Therefore, the correct location of the driver is at -17 m it means her is 17 m  below the surface of the water.

-2x+15y=-24<br> 2x+9y=24
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

x = 12 and y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Use elimination by adding the equations together.

-2x + 15y =-24

2x + 9y =  24

---------------

24y = 0

y=0

Then substitute y = 0 into one equation to find x.

-2x + 15(0) = -24

-2x + 0 = -24

-2x = -24

x = 12
