Sara jumps off a diving board that is 6 feet above the surface of the water her height above the surface of the water h in feet

is a function of time t in seconds as modeled by the quadratic function h(t)=-2t^2 + t + 6 how many seconds did it take sara to hit the surface of the water after she jumped off the diving board

Well when she hits the water h=0 so

2t^2-t-6=0  factor

2t^2-4t+3t-6=0

2t(t-2)+3(t-2)=0

(2t+3)(t-2)=0, since t>0

t=2 seconds...

However it should be noted that h(t)=-2t^2+t+6 implies that

v(t)=dh/dt=-4t+1 and

a(t)=dv/dt=-4

Since this is a free fall equation, this would suggest that the acceleration due to gravity is -4, whether that is supposed to be -4ft/s^2 or -4m/s^2, it certainly is not on this planet! :D  If it is -4ft/s^2 it could be on the Moon or if it is -4m/s^2 it could be on Mars.

inn [45]
Well 17-3 gets you 14 which would be half of her apples. 14x2=28 therefore, Daphne originally had 28 apples. She gave away 17 which means she kept 11 for herself

andrew-mc [135]
Month_1 Value = Month_0 Value * 0.95

Month_2 Value = Month_1 Value * 0.95 = Moth_0 Value * 0.95*0.95 = Month_0 Value * 0.95^2

Month _n Value = Month_0 Value * (0.95)^n

After 2 years ==> n = 24

Month_24 Value = Month_0 Value * (0.95)^24 = 2,000,000 *(0.95)^24 = 583,978.05

Easy Fast Question PLease HElp<br> Multiply <br> -2x^2(3x^3-5x^2+6x-1)
Nataly_w [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

6x^5-10x^4+12x^3-2x^2


<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are the following expression and we are to expand it by multiplying the term outside the parenthesis with terms inside it:

[ t e x ] - 2 x ^ 2 ( 3 x ^ 3 - 5 x ^ 2 + 6 x - 1 ) [ / t e x]

Multiplying the term [ t e x ] - 2 x ^ 2 [/ t e x ] with each of the terms inside the brackets to get:

6x^5-10x^4+12x^3-2x^2

Note that the exponents are added when multiplied and since each terms has a different exponent so they cannot be added or subtracted.
