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

Answer:

a) 7 tiles

b)4 1/3 tiles*

Step-by-step explanation:

*you would need 5 tiles if the answer isn't supposed to be a fraction. 4 1/3 is the exact amount but if they are asking for whole tiles you need to put 5. since they didn't actually specifiy that i don't think you have to worry about it. i would go with 4 1/3 tiles
