An object is launched from the ground. The object’s height, in feet, can be described by the quadratic function h(t) = 80t – 16t

2, where t is the time, in seconds, since the object was launched. When will the object hit the ground after it is launched? Explain how you found your answer.

Set h(t), time = 0.
0 = 80t-16t^2
-16t^2+80t =0

Factor
-16t(t-5) =0

t =0 (when launched)
& t = 5

Sample Response: The object will hit the ground after 5 seconds. You can rewrite the quadratic function as a quadratic equation set equal to zero to find the zeros of the function 0 = –16t2 + 80t + 0. You can factor or use the quadratic formula to get t = 0 and t = 5. Therefore, it is on the ground at t = 0 (time of launch) and then hits the ground at t = 5 seconds

What did you include in your response? Check all that apply.

I Rewrite the quadratic function as a quadratic equation set equal to zero: 0 = –16t2 + 80t + 0.

Use the quadratic formula to solve for the zeros.

Factor to solve for the zeros.

t = 0 and t = 5 seconds.

The object will hit the ground after 5 seconds.

❗️❗️❗️Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator.❗️❗️❗️
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

x=\frac{\sqrt{14} }{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that you are given an isosceles right-angle triangle to solve, since each of its two acute angles measures 45^o. Then such means that the sides opposite to these acute angles (the so called "legs" of this right angle triangle) must also be of the same length (x).

We can then use the Pythagorean theorem that relates the square of the hypotenuse to the addition of the squares of the triangles legs:

(\sqrt{7})^2=x^2+x^2\\7=2\,x^2\\x^2=\frac{7}{2} \\x=+/-\sqrt{\frac{7}{2}} \\x=+/-\frac{\sqrt{14} }{2}

We use just the positive root, since we are looking for an actual length. then, the requested side is:

x=\frac{\sqrt{14} }{2}

A spinner has three sections. The table shows the results of spinning the arrow on the spinner 80 times. What is the experimenta
mihalych1998 [28]
The experimental probability is

  (number of times it stopped over Sect. 2) / (total number of times you tried it)

Number of times it stopped in Section-2: 36

Total number of times you tried it:  (20 + 36 + 24)  =  80

Experimental probability of Section-2  =  36/80 = 9/20  =  45%
