Dvide 144 by 4 wich equals 36

then mulitple 36 by 3 wich equals 108

wich means it takes 108 minutes for him to read 144 pages

A ball is thrown into the air from a height of 4 feet at time t = 0. The function that models this situation is h(t) = -16t2 + 6

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Part a) The height of the ball after 3 seconds is $49\ ft$

Part b) The maximum height is 66 ft

Part c) The ball hit the ground for t=4 sec

Part d) The domain of the function that makes sense is the interval

[0,4]

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$h(t)=-16t^{2} +63t+4$

Part a) What is the height of the ball after 3 seconds?

For t=3 sec

Substitute in the function and solve for h

$h(3)=-16(3)^{2} +63(3)+4=49\ ft$

Part b) What is the maximum height of the ball? Round to the nearest foot.

we know that

The maximum height of the ball is the vertex of the quadratic equation

so

Convert the function into a vertex form

$h(t)=-16t^{2} +63t+4$

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$h(t)-4=-16t^{2} +63t$

Factor the leading coefficient

$h(t)-4=-16(t^{2} -(63/16)t)$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

$h(t)-4-16(63/32)^{2}=-16(t^{2} -(63/16)t+(63/32)^{2})$

$h(t)-(67,600/1,024)=-16(t^{2} -(63/16)t+(63/32)^{2})$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$h(t)-(67,600/1,024)=-16(t-(63/32))^{2}$

$h(t)=-16(t-(63/32))^{2}+(67,600/1,024)$

the vertex is the point (1.97,66.02)

therefore

The maximum height is 66 ft

Part c) When will the ball hit the ground?

we know that

The ball hit the ground when h(t)=0 (the x-intercepts of the function)

so

$h(t)=-16t^{2} +63t+4$

For h(t)=0

$0=-16t^{2} +63t+4$

using a graphing tool

The solution is t=4 sec

see the attached figure

Part d) What domain makes sense for the function?

The domain of the function that makes sense is the interval

[0,4]

All real numbers greater than or equal to 0 seconds and less than or equal to 4 seconds

Remember that the time can not be a negative number

Please help and explain!

Scrat [10]

K is the slope of the line formed by connecting the points.
Use slope formula:
$\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$
where the 2 points are the end points of the line (First and last going Left to right)
$(x_1,y_1) = (2,7) \\ (x_2,y_2) = (8,28)$
Substitute into slope formula
$k= \frac{28-7}{8-2} = \frac{21}{6} = \frac{7}{2}$
You can check if this is correct by going back to graph and going "up 7" and "over 2" to get from one point to the next.

a recipe calls for 12 ounces of raisin. raisins come in boxes of 170 g. how many boxes of raisins are needed for the recipe?

Olin [163]

Hi there! Hope this helps, and if it does, please mark brainliest!

Answer:

2 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are roughly 28 grams in an ounce. So if you have 12 ounces, times 28 by 12, which is 336, so you need 336 grams of raisins. Divide by 170, the number of grams in one box, which would be 1.98 boxes, but you have to round up, so you would need two boxes.
