A cliff diver jumps from a cliff that is 96 feet above the water. His jump can be modeled by a quadratic equation, h= -16t(expon

ent 2) + 96, where t is time in seconds and h is height in feet. How long will it take for the diver to enter the water?

Answer:

The diver will take 2.449 seconds to enter the water.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that quadratic equation for the diver jumps is

h=-16t^2+96

We have to find the time taken for the diver to enter the water. When the diver enters the water, the height becomes zero.

0=-16t^2+96\\\\16t^2=96\\\\t^2=6\\\\t=\sqrt6\\\\t=2.449\text{ seconds}

Therefore, the diver will take 2.449 seconds to enter the water.

where
n

is the degree of the denominator.
1. If

3. If

There is no oblique asymptote because the degree of the numerator is less than or equal to the degree of the denominator.

Solve 10(y+7)=12y for y
12345 [234]

Answer:

y=35

Step-by-step explanation:

10(y+7)=12y

10y+70=12y

70=12y-10y

70=2y

70/2=y

35=y

therefore, y=35

Factor completely 10x2 + 2x − 8.
ki77a [65]
The answer is 2(5x - 4)(x + 1)

10x² + 2x - 8 = 2*5x² + 2*x - 2*4 =
= 2(5x² + x - 4) =
= 2(5x² + 5x - 4x - 4) =
= 2(5x *x + 5x*1) - (4*x + 4*1) =
= 2(5x(x + 1) - 4(x + 1)) =
= 2(5x - 4)(x + 1)
