Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the missing equation in your question is: h(t) = -16 t^{2} + 16t + 480

Here is my answer:

As we know that the vertex form of a parabola, y=a(x-h)^{2} + k where(h,k) is the vertex

h(t) = -16 t^{2} + 16t + 480

= -16 (t^{2} -t) + 480  

= -16 (t-\frac{1}{2}) ^{2} + 484

So the vertex is (\frac{1}{2} , 484)

a. It take for Joseph \frac{1}{2} second to reach his maximum height

b. The highest point that Joseph reached is the vertex of the function, it is 484 ft

c. Joseph hit the water after how many seconds?

<=> h(t) = 0

<=>  -16 t^{2} + 16t + 480  = 0

<=> t = \frac{192}{32} second = 6 sec

Hope it will find you well

Angle-A and angle-B are alternate interior angles with parallel lines cut by a transversal. That tells you that the two angles are EQUAL. So you can write

8x + 78 = 2x + 114 ,

and it should all be smooth sailing for you from that point.

PLEASE HELP ADSAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rasek [7]

Answer:

Part A: (0.25+0.30+0.75) - 0.20

Part B:

Step-by-step explanation:

The jar contains 0.25 of apple juice and 0.30 liter of grape juice. Then, another 0.75 litter is added. Melissa drank 0.20 of that, making the value lower (Hint: subtraction).

So we have to add 0.25, 0.30, and 0.75. Subtract it by 0.20. My equation would look like:

(0.25+0.30+0.75) - 0.20

The simplified equation will be:

1.3 - 0.20

= 1.1

I used the associative property to simplify the parenthesed part of the equation, and subtracted it by 1.1. Even though it has been simplified, the result has no changed and it is still the same value as it would have been in the previous equation.

Best of luck, and have a blessed day! For any question or comments, please say so!

If you have a cubic polynomial of the form y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d and lets say it passes through the points (2,28), (-1, -5),
nikklg [1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Solve using the first point</u>

<em>(2, 28)</em>

28 = a(2)^3 + b(2)^2 + c(2) + d

28 = 8a + 4b + 2c + d

<u>Step 2:  Solve using the second point</u>

<em>(-1, -5)</em>

-5 = a(-1)^3 + b(-1)^2 + c(-1) + d

-5 = -a + b - c + d

<u>Step 3:  Solve using the third point</u>

<em>(4, 220)</em>

220 = a(4)^3 + b(4)^2 + c(4) + d

220 = 64a + 16b + 4c + d

<u>Step 4:  Solve using the fourth point</u>

<em>(-2, -20)</em>

-20 = a(-2)^3 + b(-2)^2 + c(-2) + d

-20 = -8a + 4b - 2c + d

<u>Step 5:  Combine the first and fourth equations</u>

<u />28 - 20 = 8a - 8a + 4b + 4b + 2c - 2c + d + d

8 = 8b + 2d

8 - 8b = 8b - 8b + 2d

(8 -8b)/2 = 2d/2

4 - 4b = d

<u>Step 6:  Solve for c in the second equation</u>

-5 + 5 = -a + b - c + d + 5

0 + c = -a + b - c + c + d + 5

c = -a + b + d + 5

<u>Step 7:  Substitute d with the stuff we got in step 5</u>

c = -a + b + (4 - 4b) + 5

c = -a + b + 4 - 4b + 5

c = -a - 3b + 9

<u>Step 8:  Substitute d and c into the first equation</u>

<u />28 = 8a + 4b + 2(-a - 3b + 9) + (4 - 4b)

28 = 8a + 4b - 2a - 6b + 18 + 4 - 4b

28 - 22 = 6a - 6b + 22 - 22

6 / 6 = (6a - 6b) / 6

1 + b = a - b + b

1 + b = a

<u>Step 9:  Substitute a, b, and c into the third equation</u>

220 = 64(1 + b) + 16b + 4(-(1 + b) - 3b + 9) + (4 - 4b)

220 = 64 + 64b + 16b + 4(-1 - b - 3b + 9) + 4 - 4b

220 - 100 = 60b + 100 - 100

120 / 60 = 60b / 60

2 = b

<u>Step 10:  Find a using b = 2</u>

a = b + 1

a = (2) + 1

a = 3

<u>Step 11:  Find c using a = 3 and b = 2</u>

c = -a - 3b + 9

c = -(3) - 3(2) + 9

c = -3 - 6 + 9

c = 0

<u>Step 12:  Find d using b = 2</u>

d = 4 - 4b

d = 4 - 4(2)

d = 4 - 8

d = -4

Answer:  a = 3, b = 2, c = 0,d = -4
