Given:

The distance s​ (in feet) of the ball from the ground after t seconds is

s=64t-16t^2

To find:

(a) At what time t will the ball strike the​ ground?

(b) For what time t is the ball more than 48 feet above the​ ground?

Solution:

(a)

We have,

s=64t-16t^2

Substitute s=0, to find the time t when the ball strike the​ ground.

0=64t-16t^2

0=16t(4-t)

Using zero product property, we get

16t=0\Rightarrow t=0

4-t=0\Rightarrow t=4

Therefore, the ball strike the​ ground in initial condition (t = 0) and after 4 seconds (t = 4).

(b)

Now, s > 48, to find the time t when the ball will be more than 48 feet above the​ ground.

64t-16t^2\geq 48

0> 16t^2-64t+48

Divide both sides by 16.

0> t^2-4t+3

0> t^2-t-3t+3

0> t(t-1)-3(t-1)

0>(t-1)(t-3)

Related equation is (t-1)(t-3)=0. Zeroes are t=1,3. These two number divide the number line is three parts. (-∞,1),(1,3),(3,∞)

0>(t-1)(t-3) inequality is true for only (1,3).

It is only possible when t lies in the interval (1,3).

Therefore, the ball will be more than 48 feet above the​ ground between 1 and 3 seconds.

The graph of an exponential function passes through (1, 10) and (4, 80). Find the function that describes the graph.
svetlana [45]

Answer:

  • y = 5*2ˣ

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Exponential function:</u>

  • y = abˣ

<u>Ordered pairs given:</u>

  • (1, 10) and (4, 80)

<u>Substitute x and y values to get below system:</u>

  • 10 = ab
  • 80 = ab⁴

<u>Divide the second equation by the first one and solve for b:</u>

  • 80/10 = b³
  • b³ = 8
  • b = ∛8
  • b = 2

<u>Use the first equation and find the value of a:</u>

  • 10 = a*2
  • a = 5

<u>The function is:</u>

  • y = 5*2ˣ

What is the equation of the midline of the sinusoidal function?<br> [Enter the answer in the box]
Contact [7]

Answer:

y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the equation of mid-line of the given sinusoidal function.

Since the mid-line of a sinusoidal function is the line that runs between the maximum and minimum y-values of the function. We can consider it the middle y-value.

\text{Mid-line}=\frac{\text{Maximum value+Minimum value}}{2}

We can see from our given graph that the maximum value of our function is 5 and minimum value of our function is -5.

Upon substituting these values in mid-line formula we will get,

\text{Mid-line}=\frac{5+(-5)}{2}

\text{Mid-line}=\frac{5-5}{2}

\text{Mid-line}=\frac{0}{2}

\text{Mid-line}=0

Therefore, the equation of the mid-line of the given sinusoidal function is y=0.

How does 0.03 compare to 0.003
kati45 [8]

0.03 compare to 0.003

While comparing decimals we write the decimals one below the other according to the place value of each digits in place value chart

ones -- point -- Tenths -- Hundredths -- Thousandths

 0          .             0              3

 0          .             0              0                      3

Now we compare each digit left to right. We have 3 in hundredths  and 0 in hundredths place. 3 is greater

So 0.03  is greater than  0.003

0.03 > 0.003
