A six-foot-tall basketball player shoots a ball towards the basket and misses. The height in feet of the ball up off the floor o

f the court as it travels through the air can be modeled by the function: h(x)=-16x^2+48x+6 where x is the number of seconds the ball is in the air after the shot is taken. When does the ball reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height of the ball? How much time will pass in seconds from the start of the shot to the ball hitting the floor? Answer all three questions to receive full credit.

Answer:

i) The maximum height  of the ball 'x' = 1.5 seconds

ii)   The maximum height  = 42

 Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step(i):</u>-

Given h(x) = - 16 x² + 48 x +6   ...(i)

Differentiating equation (i) with respective to 'x'

h ^{l} (x) = - 16 (2 x) +48 (1)   ...(ii)

Equating Zero

- 3 2 x + 4 8 = 0

- 32 x = - 48

    x = 1.5

<u><em>step(ii)</em></u>:-

The maximum height of the ball 'x' = 1.5

Again Differentiating equation (ii) with respective to 'x'

h ^{ll} (x) = - 16 (2 x) < 0

The maximum height 'x' = 1.5

h(x) = - 16 x² + 48 x +6  

h(1.5) = - 16 (1.5)² +4 8 (1.5) +6

         =   42

The maximum height at x = 1.5 is  = 42

<u><em>Final answer</em></u>:-

i) The maximum height  of the ball 'x' = 1.5 seconds

ii)   The maximum height  = 42

Shawn Fitzgerald finds a suitable property and agrees upon a selling price of $137,900. The mortgage company requires a 20% down
Phantasy [73]
Amount financed
137,900−137,900×0.20
=110,320
number of thousands
110,320÷1,000
=110.32
Multiply it by the monthly payment per thousands
110.32×7.34
=809.7488
Now multiply it by the number of months in a year
809.7488×12 months
=9,716.9856
Multiply it by the number of years
9,716.9856×30
=291,509.568
Now the total amount of interest charged
291,509.568−110,320
=181,189.568 round your answer
=181190...answer

Hope it helps
