A ball is thrown in the air that is 48 feet above the ground with an initial vertical velocity of 32 feet per second. The height

of the ball, in feet, can be represented by the function h(t)= -16t^2 + 32t + 48, where t is the time, in seconds, since the ball was thrown. What function rewritten in the form that would be best to use to identify the maximum height of the ball?

Answer:

h(t) = -16(t - 1)² + 64

Step-by-step explanation:

The function that would best to use to identify the maximum height of the ball is the vertex form of the parabola.

The standard form of a quadratic function is  

y = ax² + bx + c

The vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

h = -b/(2a) and k = f(h)

In your equation, h(t) = -16t^2 + 32t + 48

a = -16; b = 32; c = 48

Calculate h

h = -32/[2(-16)]

h = (-32)/(-32)

h = 1

Calculate k

k = -16(1)² + 32×1 + 48

k = -16      + 32    + 48

k =  64

So, h = 1, k = 64, a = -16

The vertex form of the equation is  h(t) = -16(t - 1)² + 64.

The graph below shows h(t) with the ball at its maximum height of 64 ft one second after being thrown.

Use the following statements to find a compound statement for (p∨q)∧rp∨q)∧r p: 5<-3 q: All vertical angles are congruent. r:
guajiro [1.7K]
Given the compound statement <span>(p∨q)∧r
where: p: 5 < -3
q : All vertical angles are congruent.
r: 4x = 36, then x = 9.

Recall the in logic, '</span>∨' symbolises "or" while '∧' symbolises "and".

Therefore, the compound statement <span>(p∨q)∧r can be written as follows:
Either 5 < -3 or all vertical angles are congruent, and if 4x = 36, then x = 9.
</span>

PLEASE HELP!!!

44.


The closer it gets to -19, the closer the number goes to 44. It never hits it exactly though, but based off the trend (43.95, 43.995, 43.9995) we can tell that it gets closer to 44 each time.


Hope this helps! (:
