Answer:

The rocket will take 4.5 seconds to reach its maximum height.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of a missile t seconds after it has been fired is given by h=-4.9*t²+44.1*t

This function is a quadratic function of the form f (x) = a*x² + b*x + c. In this case a=-4.9, b=44.1 and c=0

To calculate how many seconds it will take for the rocket to reach its maximum height, I must calculate the maximum of the function. The maximum of a quadratic function is the vertex of the parabola. The x coordinate of the vertex will be simply: x=\frac{-b}{2*a}. The y coordinate of the vertex corresponds to the function evaluated at that point.

In this case the x coordinate of the vertex corresponds to the t coordinate. In other words, by calculating the x coordinate of the vertex, you are calculating the maximum time t it will take for the rocket to reach its maximum height. So:

t=\frac{44.1}{2*(-4.9)}

t=4.5

<u><em>The rocket will take 4.5 seconds to reach its maximum height.</em></u>

The perimeter of a rectangular metal plate is 15 cm. Find the length of the rectangular plate (in decimals) whose width is 228 c
scoray [572]

The Solution.

Representing the problem in a diagram, we have

By formula,

P=2(L+W)

In this case,

P=15\operatorname{cm},L=?,W=\frac{22}{8}cm

Substituting these values in the formula above, we get

15=2(L+\frac{22}{8})

Clearing the bracket, we get

15=2L+(2\times\frac{22}{8})\begin{gathered} 15=2L+\frac{11}{2} \\  \\ 15=2L+5.5 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} 15-5.5=2L \\ 9.5=2L \end{gathered}

Dividing both sides by 2, we get

L=\frac{9.5}{2}=4.75\approx4.8\operatorname{cm}

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.

Answer:

step 3 has incorrect justification.

Step-by-step explanation:

because it was combine like terms but 8 is still in left hand side. So,combine like terms 3 has incorrect justification.
