Answer:

maximum height is 4.058 metres

Time in air = 0.033 second

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the equation height h

h = -212t^2 + 7t + 4

What is the toy's maximum height?

Let us assume that the equation is a perfect parabola

Time t at Maximum height will be

t = -b/2a

Where b = 7 and a = - 212

t = -7/ - 212 ×2

t = 7/ 424 = 0.0165s

Substitute t in the main equation

h = - 212(7/424)^2 + 7(7/424) + 4

h = - 0.05778 + 0.115567 + 4

h = 4.058 metres

Therefore the maximum height is 4.058 metres

How long is the toy in the air?

The object will go up and return to the ground.

At ground level, h = 0

-212t^2 + 7t + 4 = 0

212t^2 - 7t - 4 = 0

You can factorize the above equation and pick the positive time t since time can't be negative

Since we have assumed that it's a perfect parabola,

Total time in air = (-b/2a) × 2

Time in air = 0.0165 × 2 = 0.033 s

Find the values of m and b that make the following function differentiable.

KengaRu [80]

$f(x)=\begin{cases}x^2&\text{for }x\le2\\mx+b&\text{for }x>2\end{cases}$

In order to be differentiable everywhere, $f$ must first be continuous everywhere, which means the limits from either side as $x\to2$ must be the same and equal to $f(2)$ . By definition, $f(2)=2^2=4$ , and

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2^-}f(x)=\lim_{x\to2}x^2=4$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2^+}f(x)=\lim_{x\to2}(mx+b)=2m+b$

so we need to have $4m+b=4$ .

For $f$ to be differentiable at $x=2$ , the derivative needs to be continuous at $x=2$ , i.e.

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2^-}f'(x)=\lim_{x\to2^+}f'(x)$

We then need to have

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2}2x=\lim_{x\to2}m\implies\boxed{m=4}$

Then

$2m+b=4\implies\boxed{b=-4}$

What does i^16 equal and how do you get the answer

svp [43]

Answer:

i^16 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

i = √-1 = i

i^2 = i * i = (√-1)^2 = -1

i^3 = i^2 * i^1 = -1 * √-1 = -√-1 or -i

i^4 = i^2 * i^2 = -1 * -1 = 1

the order keeps following......

i^16 = 1

since i^16 is same thing as i^4 * i^4

and we know i^4 = 1 so 1*1=1
