Answer:
constant of variation = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that b varies jointly with c and d
so:
b∝c∝d
and b varies inversely with e, so
b∝
and i will call the constant of variation k, this way we can make an equation for b in the following form:
this satisfy that b varies jointly with c and d (if b increases, c and d also increase) and inversely with e (if b increases, e decreases)
we know that when b is 18, c is 4, d is 9, and e is 6:
substituting this in our equation for b:
and we solve operations and clear for the constant of variation k:
the constant of variation is 3.
Answer:
a) No. t < 0 is not part of the useful domain of the function
b) 2.0 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
a) A graph of the function is shown below. It shows t-intercepts at t=-0.25 and t=2.0. We presume that t is measured forward from some event such as the ball being thrown or hit. The model's predicted ball location has no meaning prior to that event, when values of t are negative.

b) It is convenient to use a graphing calculator to find the t-intercepts. Or, the equation can be solved for h=0 any of several ways algebraically. One is by factoring.
h = 0 = -16t² +28t +8 . . . . . . . . . . . . the ball hits the ground when h = 0
0 = -4(4t² -7t -2) = -4(4t +1)(t -2)
This has t-intercepts where the factors are zero, at t=-1/4 and t=2.
The ball will hit the ground after 2 seconds.
