Step-by-step explanation:

The T-shirt is launched with an initial upward velocity of 60 ft/s from a height of 5 feet. Its equation of motion is given by :

f(x) = -12x^2 + 60x + 5 ....(1)

(a) For maximum height, put \dfrac{df(x)}{dt}=0

So,

\dfrac{ d(-12x^2 + 60x + 5)}{dt}=-24x+60

Now put,

-24x+60=0\\\\x=2.5\ s

So, the time taken for the T-shirt to reach maximum height is 2.5 seconds.

(b) Put x = 2.5 s in equation (1)

f(x=2.5) = -12(2.5)^2 + 60(2.5) + 5\\\\f(x)=80\ \text{feet}

Cloud [144]

you cannot show too much "work"

basically, you remove what is common to all of the factors, and then put brackets, as it will be multiplied back in, remember that when you multiply exponents with the same base, its same as adding them, so subtract to remove...

you can seperate two of the variables , then factor, then subtract the last one from those two, because it cannot be factored out , as in part2 #2

What is 3/4 ÷ 1/6? Please help !......
Reika [66]

Answer:

4 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the fractions formula for division, to

3/4÷1/6

and solve

3/6x4/1

=18/4

Reduce by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor GCF(18,4) = 2

18/24÷2/2=9/2

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 9 ÷ 2 = 4R1, so

9/2=4 1/2

Therefore:

3/4÷1/6=4 1/2

For an equation 9-3x=21, the first step is
g100num [7]

Answer: A.Subtract 9 from both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer A: Subtract 9 from both sides

Explanation: You want to solve the x from this equation, then the first thing is to put the number that has no valiable x to the other sides, so in this equations, we want to move 9 to the right side, so we subtract 9 from both sides.
