A dog jumps straight up. Y=-16t^2+20t models the motion of the dog, where "t" is the time in seconds and "y" is the height of th
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The motion of the dolphin is quadratic

i.e y=-16t²+20t

To get the maximum height the dolphin will reach

We need to find the point of inflexion. i.e dy/dt=0

dy/dt=-32t+20

Then set dy/dt=0

0=-32t+20

Then, -32t=-20

t=0.625

Let find d²y/dt²

d²y/dt²=-32. Since this is negative then the point t=0.625 is the maximum point the dolphin can reach

Then substitute t=0.625 into y

y=-16t²+20t

y=-16(0.625)²+20(0.625)

y=6.25ft

Then the maximum height the dolphin can reach is 6.25ft

Using discriminant

Formular method

y=-16t²+20t

So the dog height y<7

y=-16t²+20t <7

-16t²+20t-7<0

a=-16, b= 20. c=-7

t=(-b±√b²-4ac)/2a

Using the a, b and c direct for the discriminant

D=b²-4ac

D=20²-4×-16×-7

D=-48

Which is a complex number

Then the dolphin can reach the height

Then we need to model the D to be greater than 0

Therefore,

D>0

b²-4ac>0

We cannot do anything to a and b it is already given

a=-16, b=20

(20)²-4(-16c)>0

400+64c>0

64c>-400

Then

c>-6.25

Divide both side by - and the inequality sign will change

Therefore -c<6.25

So the dog height y<6.25

y=-16t²+20t <6.25

Therefore the maximum height is 6.25.

If it is greater than that then, we are going to have a complex root movement which is not possible for the dolphin .

What is the sum of the interior angles of the polygon shown below
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

720 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a convex polygon with  n  sides is

180(n - 2)  degrees.

In this case,  n = 6 sides, so the angle sum is

180(6 - 2) = 180(4) = 720 degrees.

The reason this works is that if you draw a diagonal from one vertex to the others (see attached image), you get 2 fewer triangles than the number of sides.  Each triangle contains a total of 180 degrees, so the total of all the interior angles is 180(n - 2).
