A diver jumps up and over from a cliff in order to avoid rocks and land in the deeper water. The path of the dive can be modeled

using the function f(x)=−16x2+2x+48, where f(x) is the height, in feet, of the diver at x time in seconds. What is the maximum height, in feet, the diver will reach? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary. Do not include units in your answer.

Answer:

48.06  to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -16x^2 + 2x + 48

To find the maximum height we convert to vertex form:

= -16(x^2 + 1/8x) + 48

= -16[x + 1/16)^2 - 1/256] + 48

= -16(x + 1.16)^2  + 16/256 + 48

= 48.0625.

A baby weights 18 pounds at her four month appointment. Six months later she weights 24 pounds. By what percentage did the baby’
Anna11 [10]

Answer: 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Previous baby's weight = 18 pounds

New baby's weight =  24 pounds.

Increase in weight = New weight -Previews weight

=24 pounds - 18 pounds  =6 pounds

Percentage increase in baby's weight ==\dfrac{\text{Increase in baby's weight}}{\text{previous weight}}\times100

\\\\=\dfrac{6}{24}\times100=25\%

Hence, the percentage increase in baby's weight = 25%

Kent multiplies both sides of the equation below by an expression.
Korolek [52]
The steps below are presented in order to arrive to the value of k of the given equation. 
First, multiply both sides of the equation by the variable k since the left-hand side of the equation has it in the denominator. This will be,  
            (k + 12/ k)(k) = 8(k)

Then, we simplify,
             k + 12 = 8k
We then, subtract 8k to both sides of the equation,
           k - 8k + 12 = 8k - 8k

Simplifying,
                  -7k + 12 = 0

Then, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation and divide both sides by -7. This will us the final answer of,                  
                     k = 12/7

Answer:

(f + g)(3) = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(x) = x² + 1

g(x) = x - 4

Required:

(f + g)(3)

SOLUTION:

✔️Find f(3) by substituting x = 3 into f(x) = x² + 1:

f(3) = (3)² + 1 = 9 + 1

f(3) = 10

✔️Find g(3) by substituting x = 3 into g(x) = x - 4:

g(3) = 3 - 4

g(3) = -1

✔️Find (f + g)(3):

(f + g)(3) = f(3) + g(3)

= 10 + (-1)

= 10 - 1

(f + g)(3) = 9
