On top of a hill, a rocket is launched from a distance 80 feet above a lake. The rocket will fall into the lake after its engine

burns out. The rocket's height, h, in feet above the surface of the lake, is given by the equation, h = -16t 2 + 64t + 80, where t is time in seconds. The maximum height of the rocket is
a0 feet.

Answer:

Maximum height is 144 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation y =ax^2+bx+c=0 gives maximum value when x =\frac{-b}{2a}

after finding the value of x we plug value of x in original equation in order to find the maximum value (minimum value in case of a >0)

on comparing given quadratic equation which is variable 't' ,we get a =-16 and  b =64

t =\frac{-64}{2(-16)}

plugging this value of t =2 in  original equation in order to get maximum value of h

so h = \-16(2)^2+16(2)+80

which gives h =144 feet

The length of a rectangle is 7 more than twice the width x . The area is . 372
Bad White [126]

Answer:

x (7+2x) = 372,

where 372 is the are of this rectangle, and x is its width.

Step-by-step explanation:

The width of this rectangle is x. Twice that width will be equal to 2x.

The length of this rectangle is seven more than twice the width of this rectangle, or seven more than 2x. The length of this rectangle will thus equal to 7 + 2x.

The area of a rectangle is equal to the product of its width and its length. The width of this rectangle times its length will be equal to x(7+2x).

For this rectangle, this area is equal to 372. In other words,

x(7 + 2x) = 372.

This equation about x represents the relationship between the width, length, and the area of this rectangle.

viva [34]

Answer:

<em>6.6 miles</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

She jogged along the legs of a right triangle. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.

d = \sqrt{3.4^2 + 5.7^2} = \sqrt{44.05} = 6.6
