Is there a picture of the rectangular piece of paper
Answer:
t = 3; It takes the ball 3 seconds to reach the maximum height and 6 seconds to fall back to the ground.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the axis of symmetry, we need to find the vertex by turning this equation into vertex form (this is y = a(x - c)² + d where (c, d) is the vertex). To do this, we can use the "completing the square" strategy.
h(t) = -16t² + 96t
= -16(t² - 6t)
= -16(t² - 6t + 9) - (-16) * 9
= -16(t - 3)² + 144
Therefore, we know that the vertex is (3, 144) so the axis of symmetry is t = 3. Since the coefficient of the squared term, -16, is negative, it means that the vertex is the maximum. We know that it takes the golf ball 3 seconds to reach the maximum height (since the t value of the vertex is 3) and because the vertex is on the axis of symmetry, it would take 3 more seconds for the ball to fall to the ground, therefore it takes 3 + 3 = 6 seconds to fall to the ground. The final answer is "t = 3; It takes the ball 3 seconds to reach the maximum height and 6 seconds to fall back to the ground.".
Answer:
so the axis of symmetry is x=4
The unit rate would be 11/2. Hope this helped.
Whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other.
Try to get all the x values and regular values together.
To do that, just subtract both sides by 6x to cancel it out on one side and subtract it from the other side:
6x-6x+32=-2x-6x
=
32=-8x
now divide both sides by -8 to get the x by itself
32/-8=-8/-8x
= 32/-8=x
-4=x
so your answer is: x= -4
