Answer:
D. y= -4x +5
Step-by-step explanation:
- The equation
can be transformed by doing some algebra.
- If we solve the second term of the equation -4(x-2)= 8 - 4x, then we have
(this is done by distributing the multiplication into the two terms: remember that the product of -4x(-2)=+8 because the product of two negative numbers is a possitive number).
- Then, by subtracting both sides 3, we have
. Rearranging terms in the right side, we have
, which is option D.
The given function is
According to this function, the starting height of the rocket is 20 feet because that's the initial condition of the problem stated by the independent term.
Additionally, we find the maximum height by calculating the vertex of the function V(h,k).
Where a = -16 and b = 300.
Then, we find k by evaluating the function
Hence, the maximum height is 1426.25 feet.
At last, to know the time need to hit the ground, we just use h=9.375 and we multiply it by 2
Hence, the rocket hits the ground after 18.75 seconds.
