Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are just looking for the derivative, then all you need to use the power rule for this. Technically the x in (x-9) has a power to the 1, so really x^1-9. To use power rule, you bring down the exponent, in this case, 1, and then minus 1 from what the exponent was.

1x^(1-1) = 1x^0. The derivative of any constant is 0, so don't even worry about the -9. We know that anything raised to the zero is just 1, so in this case your answer is 1.

Hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Is the following relation a function? (
PolarNik [594]
No, because there are TWO values of y for a certain value of x

say x=5, then y=2 and y=-2

That does not satisfy the concept of the function.

 PLEASE HELP!! A tennis ball machine serves a ball vertically into the air from a height of two feet, with an initial speed of 1
ch4aika [34]
Thank you for posting your question here. I hope the answer below will help. 

Vo=110 feet per second 
<span>ho=2 feet </span>
<span>So, h(t) = -16t^2 +110t +2 </span>
<span>Take the derivative: h'(t) = 110 -32t </span>
<span>The maximum height will be at the inflection when the derivative crosses the x-axis aka when h'(t)=0. </span>
<span>So, set h'(t)=0 and solve for t: </span>
<span>0 = 110 -32t </span>
<span>-110 = -32t </span>
<span>t=3.4375 </span>
<span>t=3.44 seconds </span>
