A model rocket is launched with an initial upward velocity of 202 ft/s. The rocket's height h (in feet) after t seconds is given

by the following.
h= 202t-16t^2
Find all values of t for which the rocket's height is 82 feet.

Round your answer(s) to the nearest hundredth.

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The rocket will reach a height of 82 feet at:

t1=0.42s

and

t2=12.21s

<h2>Why?</h2>

We are asked to find the value(s) of t for which the rocket's height is 82 feet, so, we need to replace the height value (82 feet) into the given quadratic equation, and then, isolate "t" making the equation equal to 0.

So, writing the quadratic formula, we have:

\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}

The given function is:

-16x^2+202x=h

Substituting h equal to 82 feet, we have:

-16x^2+202x=82

-16x^2+202x-82=0

Where,

a=-16\\b=202\\c=-82

Then, substituting it into the quadratic equation we have:

\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}=\frac{-202+-\sqrt{202x^{2} -4*-16*-82} }{2*-16}\\\\\frac{-202+-\sqrt{202x^{2} -4*-16*-82} }{2*-16}=\frac{-202+-\sqrt{40804-5248} }{-32}\\\\\frac{-202+-\sqrt{40804-5248} }{-32}=\frac{-202+-\sqrt{35556} }{-32}=\frac{-202+-(188.56) }{-32}\\\\t1=\frac{-202+(188.56) }{-32}=0.42\\\\t2=\frac{-202-(188.56) }{-32}=12.205=12.21

So, the rocket will reach a height of 82 feet at:

t1=0.42s

and

t2=12.21s

Have a nice day!

lakkis [162]

The Tampa Tribune expecting to add 700 new pictures per year to their database in 2041

<h3>The linear equation of the graph</h3>

The equation of the line of best fit is given as:

y = 8x + 367

When the number of pictures added is 700, we have:

y = 700

Substitute 700 for y in y = 8x + 367

700 = 8x + 367

Subtract 367 from both sides of the equation

333= 8x

Rewrite the above equation as:

8x = 333

Divide both sides by 8

x = 41.625

Remove decimal (do not approximate)

x = 41

This means that:

Year = 2000 +41

Year = 2041

Hence, the Tampa Tribune expecting to add 700 new pictures per year to their database in 2041
