Answer:

a-17b+475

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's simplify step-by-step.

−17b+a+235+240

Combine Like Terms:

=−17b+a+235+240

=(a)+(−17b)+(235+240)

=a+−17b+475

Answer:

=a−17b+475

A rocket is launched straight up from the ground with an initial velocity of 192 feet per second. The equation for the height of
Ivenika [448]

The equation for the height of the rocket at time t given

h= -16t^2+192t

We have to find the time t, when the rocket reaches 560 feet.

That means we have to find t when h = 560 ft. we will place 560 in the place of h to find t now.

h= -16t^2+192t

560 = -16t^2+192t

In the right side, we can check -16 is the common factor. So we will take out -16 from the rigbht side.

560 = -16(t^2 - 12t)

To get rid of -16 from the right side and move it to left side, we will divide both sides by -16.

560/-16 = -16(t^2-12t)/-16

-35 = t^2 -12t

Now we will move -35 to the righ side by adding 35 to both sides.

-35+35 = t^2-12t+35

0 = t^2 -12t+35

t^2-12t+35 = 0

We will factorize thee left side to find the values of t now. We need to find a pair of factors of 35 that by adding them we will get -12.

The pair of factors of 35 are -5 and -7 and by adding -5-7 we will get -12.

t^2-12t+35 =0

(t-5)(t-7) =0

So by using zero product property we will get

t-5 =0

t-5+5 = 0+5

t=5

Also t-7 =0

t-7+7 = 0+7

t=7

So we have got the rocket reaches at 560ft when t = 5 seconds and also when t = 7 seconds.

Now part b.

When the rocket completes its trajectory and hits the ground then the height or h = 0. So we will place h = 0 there in the equation.

h= -16t^2+192t

0= -16t^2 + 192 t

0 = -16(t^2-12t)

-16(t^2-12t) = 0

We will move -16 to the other side by dividing it to both sides.

-16(t^2-12t)/-16 = 0/-16

t^2-12t = 0

We will take out the common factor t from the left side. By taking out t we will get,

t(t-12) = 0

We will use zero product property now. By using that we will get,

t = 0

ans also t-12 = 0

t-12+12 = 0+12

t = 12

When the rocket completes its trajectory and hits the ground the time t can not be 0. When t =0, the rocket starts the trajectory.

So when the rocket completes its trajectory and hits the ground ,

then t = 12seconds.

So we have got the required answers.

I need someone to explain functions and functional symmetry to me. This is very important, so if you do not have a legit answer,
dolphi86 [110]

Symmetrical functions can be about the x and y axis. Essentially, if we reflect the graph across the y or x axis, we get the same graph. Some other graphs can be reflected across both the x and y axis at the same time and be symmetrical. These can be classified as odd and even functions. You can test this by replacing x and y with -x and -y and simplify the equation. If the results comes out to be the same as the original, it is symmetrical across the origin.

Best of Luck!

What is the growth or slope of the simplified equation? NEED ANSWER ASAP
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

Slope is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 3x = 8x -7

y = 5x - 7

coefficient in front of x is the slope/rate of change once you get the equation slope intercept for y = mx + b.  m is the slope.
