NASA launches a rocket at t=0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by h(t)=−4.9t2+121t

Alenkasestr [34]

NASA launches a rocket at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by

$h(t)=-4.9t^2+121t+283$

The sea level is represented by h = 0, therefore, to find the corresponding time when h splashes into the ocean we have to solve for t the following equation:

$h(t)=0\implies-4.9t^2+121t+283=0$

Using the quadratic formula, the solution for our problem is

$\begin{gathered} t=\frac{-(121)\pm\sqrt{(121)^2-4(-4.9)(283)}}{2(-4.9)} \\ =\frac{121\pm142.083778...}{9.8} \\ =\frac{121+142.083778...}{9.8} \\ =26.8452834694... \end{gathered}$

The rocket splashes after 26.845 seconds.

The maximum of this function happens at the root of the derivative. Differentiating our function, we have

$h^{\prime}(t)=-9.8t+121$

The root is

$-9.8t+121=0\implies t=\frac{121}{9.8}=12.347$

Then, the maximum height is

$h(12.347)=1029.99$

1029.99 meters above sea level.

A population of mice is increasing exponentially. On Monday there were 120 most. One month later there were 132 most. Ready func

djyliett [7]

Answer:

$y=120 * 1.1^x$ --- function

The monthly rate is 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

$x \to months$

$y \to mice$

So, we have:

$(x_1,y_1) = (0,120)$ --- Monday

$(x_2,y_2) = (1,132)$ --- One month later

Required

The function

The function is represented as:

$y=ab^x$

In $(x_1,y_1) = (0,120)$ , we have:

$120 = a * b^0$

$120 = a * 1$

$120 = a$

$a=120$

In $(x_2,y_2) = (1,132)$ , we have:

$132 = a * b^1$

$132 = a * b$

Substitute: $a=120$

$132 = 120 * b$

Solve for b

$b = \frac{132}{120}$

$b = 1.1$

So, the function is:

$y=ab^x$

$y=120 * 1.1^x$

To calculate the monthly rate (r), we have:

$y =a(1 + r)^x$

Compare to: $y =ab^x$

$1 + r = b$

Make r the subject

$r = b-1$

Substitute $b = 1.1$

$r = 1.1-1$

$r = 0.1$

Express as percentage

$r = 0.1*100\%$

$r = 10\%$

I NEED HELP URGENTLY

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

30 square millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x 3 = 9

3 x 1 = 3

there are two sides with the area 9 therefore...

9 x 2 = 18

There are four sides with the area 3 therefore...

3 x 4 = 12

Therefore the suface area is

12 + 18 = 30
