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

Anumeha is mowing the lawns for a summer job. For every mowing job, she charges and initial fee of $10 plus a constant fee for e
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

F(t) = 10 +5t

Step-by-step explanation:

Income equals the initial fee plus the hours worked times the hourly rate

We know the initial fee = 10

hours = t

hourly rate =r


F(t) = 10 + r*t

We know a 5 hour job is 35 dollars

35 = 10 + r*5

Subtract 10 from each side

35-10 = 10-10 +5r

25 = 5r

Divide by 5

25/5 = 5r/5

5 =r

The hourly rate is 5

F(t) = 10 +5t

You have to solve for y
Subtract 2x to the other side
Divide both sides by 4
y=-1x/2-2
Graph D has a slope of -1/2 and a y-intercept of -2
