Answer:

The ball is higher than 10 feet off the ground when the time is between 2 to 5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above question, we are given the equation:

h(t) =-t²+7t.

We are asked to find the time (t) when the ball will be higher than 10 feet.

h(t) = height = 10 feet.

So we have:

10 = -t² + 7t

t² - 7t + 10 = 0

We have a quadratic equation hence we factorise.

t² - 5t - 2t + 10 = 0

(t² - 5t) +(2t - 10)= 0

t(t - 5) + 2 (t - 5) = 0

(t - 2) (t - 5) = 0

t - 2 = 0, t = 2

t - 5 = 0, t = 5

t = 5 and t = 2

Therefore, the ball is higher than 10 feet off the ground when the time is between 2 to 5 seconds.

Find AC and FB.<br> Points B, D, and F are midpoints of the sides of ACE. EC=40 and DF=18.
ANTONII [103]
The second option. A is 36 and B is 20. FD is half of AC, so 18*2 is 36. FB is half of EC, so it’s 20.

If the discriminant of a quadratic equation is equal to -8, which statement describes the roots?
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A discriminate of -8 is never going to give you a real root. D is wrong

You cannot have just 1 complex root, nor can you have just 1 real root unless the discriminate is 0. A and C are both wrong for the same reason. 1 complex root is impossible. They come in pairs.

So the answer is B. You have 2 complex roots.
