Answer:
An apple is launched directly upward at 64 feet per second from a platform 80 feet high. The equation for this apple's height h at time t seconds after launch is -80 = -16t2 + 64t. How many seconds will it take the apple to hit the ground? 144 ft.
144 feet
5 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
we want the maximum (or the vertex)
-64/-32= 2
-16*2²+64*2+80=144
b.
Here we want the point in which the y=0
In other words, we want the x-intercept
-16x²+64x+80= -16(x-5)(x+1)
so we have
(5,0) and (-1,0)
reject the negative answer to get 5 seconds
3/10
9-6=3
both fractions have the same denominator so they keep it
9/10 - 6/10 = 3/10
y=-9x+51
-9x+45=y-6
add 6 to both sides to get
-9x +51=y
Just plug in 20 for t:
