A toy rocket is shot vertically into the air from a launching pad 9 feet above the ground with an initial velocity of 168 feet p

er second. The height h, in
feet, of the rocket above the ground as t seconds after launch is given by the function h(t)=-16t^2+168t+9. How long will it take the rocket to reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height?

The maximum or minimum of a function is the point
where its first derivative = 0.

                             h(t) = -16t² + 168t + 9

First derivative  h'(t) =  -32t + 168
 
                   h'(t) = 0  =   -32t + 168 = 0

Add 32t to each side:     32t = 168

Divide each side by 32:     <em>t = 5.25 seconds</em>

                              
                                                 h(t) = -16t² + 168t + 9

Height at 5.25 seconds =        -16(5.25²) + 168(5.25) + 9 = 

                                                     -16(27.5625)   +   882    +    9 =

                                                                - 441      +    882   +  9  =<em>  450-ft </em>

Y(initial) = 9
V(initial) = 168
V(final) = 0
g(accel-grav) = 32 (in feet per second
squared)
Use the following equation:
V(final) = V(initial) + a(t)
Since this object is moving straight up and
down, a = -32
Enter the knowns into the equation
0 = 168 - 32t
32t = 168
t = 168/9.8
t = 5.25

Now that you know the time it takes to
reach it's maximum, use the general
kinematics equation to solve for final
distance:

y(final) = y(initial) + V(initial)(t) + (1/2)a
(t²)

y(final) = 9 + 168(5.25) + (1/2)(-32)
(5.25²)

= 9 + 882 - 441

= 450 feet

Explain how to add fractions with unlike denominators. Please be as specific as possible.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Look below

Step-by-step explanation:

So I will use an example to try and show you how to do this.

If we have 1/2 + 1/3, we know that we don't have like denominators. We can change this by finding one. All we need to do is multiply our denominators. So in our example, that would be 2*3=6. Our new denominator would be 6. So now we would have 1/6 + 1/6 which isn't the same as our old equation. That is because we haven't multiplied our top numbers yet. To do this, we need to multiply the top number by the opposite denominator like so, 3/6+2/6.

So our first fraction was

1/2+1/3

We then multiplied the whole fraction by the opposite denominator

3/6+2/6

Thanks! Hope you choose me for brainliest!!! Have a nice day!

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation y = 25x + 100, the format of y = mx + b is being used. This is a very commonly used base for equations in math, especially when it comes to graphing.

In the equation, the m stands for the slope in the equation, and the b stands for the y intercept. Slope can also be found by taking the rise/run of a graph.

So, the slope of this line is 25, and the y-intercept 100.

I have also included the this equation on a graph as well.

I hope that this helps.
