(4x-1)(4x-1)=0
4x-1=0
4x=1
x=1/4

I would describe it as having a multiplicity of 2

Evaluate this expression <br> (-7--9)*(8+2)

Marizza181 [45]

Before we get started, it is good to remember PEMDAS - the acronym that tells you the order to carry out equations.

P = parentheses
E = exponents
M = multiplication
D = division
A = addition
S = subtraction

Knowing this, we should start by doing the equations <em>within </em>each parentheses.

$(-7 - -9) *(8 + 2)$
$(2) *(10)$

So we did the addition and subtraction pieces within each group leaving us with the above equation. Now let's multiply:

$(2)*(10) = 20$

20 is the answer.

A pumpkin is launched from the top of a 20 foot tall platform at an initial velocity of 84 feet per second. The height, h, of th

Gennadij [26K]

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In this problem we have a pumpkin is launched from the top of a 20 foot tall platform at an initial velocity of 84 feet per second. So the height, h, of the pumpkin at time t seconds after the launch can be modeled by the equation:

$h(t) = -16t^2 + 84t + 20$

So this is the equation of a parabola. The maximum of this parabola occurs at its vertex. So let's find this vertex:

$\text{The x-value of the vertex is}: \\ \\ t=-\frac{b}{2a} \\ \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ a=-16 \\ \\ b=84 \\ \\ c=20 \\ \\ \\ t=-\frac{84}{2(-16)} \\ \\ t=-\frac{84}{-32} \\ \\ t=\frac{21}{8}=2.625 \\ \\ h(2.625)=-16(2.625)^2+84(2.625)+20 \\ \\ h(2.625)=-110.25+220.5+20 \\ \\ h(2.625)=130.25m$

Finally, the maximum occurs at time 2.625 seconds when the height is 130.25m
