Given that the equation to find the height of the firework is

h(t) = at² + vt + h₀

with a = -16 ft/s² and v = 128 ft/s. In addition, since the firework starts from the ground, then the initial height, h₀, is equal to 0. Substituting these values, we have

h(t) = -16t² + 128t + 0 = -16t² + 128t

Seeing that h(t) is a quadratic function, then it forms a parabola. To find its maximum height, we can compute for the parabola's vertex. 

To find the vertex's x-coordinate, we can use 

t = -b/2a = (-128)/(2 · -16) = -128/-32 = 4

Since, it takes 4 seconds for the firework to reach its maximum height, then the maximum height it reaches is equal to h(4). Hence, we have

h(4) = -16(4)² + 128(4) = -16(16) + 512 = 256

Hence, the highest that the firework can reach is equal to 256 ft. 

Answer: A. 256 ft

** DISCLAMIER** am not completely sure. Please do not use my answer unless you are very desperate.

since O,R correspond with A,N I think you half F on each side and add it to 11.2 so
10 divided by 2 = 5
7 is already half.
5 + 7 is 12
12 + 11.2 = 23.2

IF THIS IS WRONG TRY 17
reason for 17:
10 + 7 = 17
If you look at both lines they look the same length as A, N.

A recipe for sparkling grape juice calls for 1.5 quarts of sparkling water and .75 quart of grape juice. A. How much sparkling w
cluponka [151]

Answer: We need to mix 18 quarts of sparkling water with 9 quarts of grape juice.

We need to mix 1.875 quarts of grape juice with 3.75 quarts of sparkling water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A recipe for sparkling grape juice calls for 1.5 quarts of sparkling water and .75 quart of grape juice.

Since, for recipe of sparkling grape juice , they should be used in same proportion.

Let x be the amount of sparkling water need to mix with 9 quarts of grape juice, then

\frac{x}{9}=\frac{1.5}{0.75}\\\Rightarrow\ x=\frac{1.5\times9}{0.75}\\\Rightarrow\ x=18

We need to mix 18 quarts of sparkling water with 9 quarts of grape juice.

Let y be the amount of grape juice need to mix with 3.75 quarts of sparkling water, then

\frac{3.75}{y}=\frac{1.5}{0.75}\\\Rightarrow\ y=\frac{3.75\times0.75}{1.5}\\\Rightarrow\ y=1.875

We need to mix 1.875 quarts of grape juice with 3.75 quarts of sparkling water.
