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

A fraction in which the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1 is written in what?
galben [10]
A fraction in which the factor of the numerator and the denominator is 1 is known as a <span>reduced, or simplified, fraction.
</span>
<span>68 is not reduced (or not simplified) because 68 =2⋅32⋅2⋅2 
</span>
<span>34 is a reduced, or simplified, fraction: 1⋅31⋅2⋅2</span>

This is factoring trinomials,help plz!

Factor the following:
8 x^2 - 2 x - 10
Factor 2 out of 8 x^2 - 2 x - 10:
2 (4 x^2 - x - 5)

Factor the quadratic 4 x^2 - x - 5. The coefficient of x^2 is 4 and the constant term is -5. The product of 4 and -5 is -20. The factors of -20 which sum to -1 are 4 and -5. So 4 x^2 - x - 5 = 4 x^2 - 5 x + 4 x - 5 = 4 x (x + 1) - 5 (x + 1):
2 4 x (x + 1) - 5 (x + 1)
Factor x + 1 from 4 x (x + 1) - 5 (x + 1):
Answer:  2 (x + 1) (4 x - 5)

Factor the following:
16 x^2 - 24 x + 8

Factor 8 out of 16 x^2 - 24 x + 8:
8 (2 x^2 - 3 x + 1)

Factor the quadratic 2 x^2 - 3 x + 1. The coefficient of x^2 is 2 and the constant term is 1. The product of 2 and 1 is 2. The factors of 2 which sum to -3 are -1 and -2. So 2 x^2 - 3 x + 1 = 2 x^2 - 2 x - x + 1 = -(2 x - 1) + x (2 x - 1):
8 x (2 x - 1) - (2 x - 1)

Factor 2 x - 1 from x (2 x - 1) - (2 x - 1):
Answer: 8 (2 x - 1) (x - 1)

Convert 4x-2y=6 into slope intercept form
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

y=2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

first, you have to get the y by itself (isolate the y). you do this by subtracting 4x from both sides.

4x-2y=6

-2y=-4x+6

next, you have to divide both side by -2 to isolate the y further and get this into slope-intercept form:

-2y=-4x+6

y=2x-3
