Answer:

the object is in the air on the time interval (0.24 sec, 6.51 sec)

Step-by-step explanation:

The object is 'in the air' for all t such that h> 0.  We need to find the roots of h = -16t^2 + 108t - 25 = 0.  From the graph we see that both t values are positive.  Once we find them, we subtract the smaller t from the larger t, which results in the length of time the object is in the air.

Use the quadratic formula to find the roots of h(t).  The coefficients of t are {-16, 108, -25}, and so the discriminant b^2 - 4ac is

108² - 4(-16)(-25) = 11664 - 1600 = 10064, whose square root is 100.32.

Then the quadratic formula x = (-b ± √[b² - 4ac)/(2a) becomes

      -108 ± 100.32       108 ± 100.32

t = ---------------------- = --------------------- = 3.375 ± 3.135

             2(-16)                      32

or t = 6.51 or t = 0.24  (both times expressed in seconds).

So, again, the object is in the air on the time interval (0.24 sec, 6.51 sec)

rewrite f(x)=x^2+8x-20 in the form that would most easily help you identify the zeros of the function
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

f(x) = (x-2) (x+10)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x^2+8x-20

Factor the right hand side

What 2 numbers multiply to -20 and add to 8

-2 * 10 = -20

-2 + 10 = 8

f(x) = (x-2) (x+10)

Then we can use the zero product property to help us to find the zero's

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

<h2>88859.375  &  f(n)= 28000(0.75)×</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

using the information on the problem a function can can be made

f(n)= 28000(0.75)×

where x is the amount of years

plug in 4 for x in the equation to get

f(4)=8859.375
