Jon is launching rockets in an open field. The path of the rocket can be modeled by the quadratic function h(t) = -16t^2 + 96t,

where h(t) is the height in feet any time t in seconds. After how many seconds will the rocket reach a height of 80 feet for the second time

It will reach 80 feet for the second time after 5 seconds.

We set the equation equal to 80 feet:
80= -16t² + 96t

When solving quadratics, we want it equal to 0, so we subtract 80 from both sides:
80-80= -16t² + 96t - 80
0= -16t² + 96t - 80

We use the quadratic formula to solve:
t=\frac{-96\pm \sqrt{96^2-4(-16)(-80)}}{2(-16)}
\\
\\t=\frac{-96\pm \sqrt{9216-5120}}{-32}
\\
\\t=\frac{-96\pm \sqrt{4096}}{-32}
\\
\\t=\frac{-96\pm 64}{-32}
\\
\\t=\frac{-96+64}{-32} \text{ or } 0=\frac{-96-64}{-32}
\\
\\t=1 \text{ or } t=5

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

4 (12 - 2)^2/4

Hint: | Express 4 (12 - 2)^2/4 as a single fraction.

4 (12 - 2)^2/4 = (4 (12 - 2)^2)/4:

(4 (12 - 2)^2)/4

Hint: | Cancel common terms in the numerator and denominator of (4 (12 - 2)^2)/4.

(4 (12 - 2)^2)/4 = 4/4×(12 - 2)^2 = (12 - 2)^2:

(12 - 2)^2

Hint: | Subtract 2 from 12.

| 1 | 2

- | | 2

Why did the math teacher open a window company?
umka2103 [35]

A math teacher opened a window company because he loves seeing shapes or geometrical polygons such as rectagles, squares or quadrilaterals in general as well as triangles in his works. Of course, the math teacher is already familiar with these shapes and how to calculate the angles in between.
