A stone is thrown vertically upward from a platform that is 20 feet high at a rate of 160 ft/sec. Using the quadratic function h

(t) = -16t^2+160t+20 to find how long will it take the stone to reach its maximum height, and then find the maximum height. Round your answer to the nearest tenth

Answer:

5 seconds

1220 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Know when the stone reaches the maximum height

We know the maximum or minimum height of a parabola is at the vertex so we need to find the vertex

Step 2: Calculate the vertex

The t coordinate of the vertex can be calculated with \frac{-b}{2a}

b = 160

a = 16

t=\frac{-(160)}{2(-16)}\\t=\frac{-160}{-32}\\t=5

Step 3: We know the t coordinate we can find the height at that time

h_{(t)} =-16(5)^{2} +160(5)+20\\h_{(t)}=16(25)+ (800)+20\\h_{(t)}=400+ 800+20\\h_{(t)}=1220

Therefore the stone reaches its maximum height of 1220 ft in 5 secs

What is the area of the triangle? 5 in. 3 in 4in O 6 square inches O 7-square inches O 10 square inches O 12 square ches ​
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

-------------------Heya Kjowanpreet!--------------

\large{ \tt{ \star\: S \: O \: L \: U \: T \: I \: O \: N : }}

GiveN :

  • Sides of the triangle : 3 in , 5 in and 4 ft

To FinD :

  • Area of the provided right angled triangle

FormulA :

  • Area of right angled triangle = 1/2 b × p where b = base & p = perpendicular. Here , Perpendicular = 3 in and base = 4 in

SolvinG :

\large{ \boxed{ \bf{Area \: of \:right \: angled \: triangle : \frac{1}{2} b \times p  }}}

\longrightarrow{  \tt{} \frac{1}{2}  \times 3 \times 4}

\longrightarrow{ \boxed{ \tt{6 \: in ^{2} }}}

  • Yay ! Finally , We solved. Our final answer is 6 square inches.
