Assuming Earth's gravity, the formula for the flight of the particle is: 


s(t) = -16t^2 + vt + s = -16t^2 + 144t + 160. 


This has a maximum when t = -b/(2a) = -144/[2(-16)] = -144/(-32) = 9/2. 


Therefore, the maximum height is s(9/2) = -16(9/2)^2 + 144(9/2) + 160 = 484 feet.

Use picture above.<br><br> Write the ratio. Please explain what the ratio means.
PIT_PIT [208]

1) 2:5 ratio

This is a fairly simple process, you count how many of each and then put them in order the way the question asks.

So there are 5 cans and 2 bottles. The question asks "bottles to cans" so the correct answer HAS to be 2:5, NOT 5:2.

2) 3:1

There is 1 spoon and 3 forks. The question asks "forks to spoons" so the correct answer HAS to be 3:1, NOT 1:3
