Answer:

<h2>L=203 yards</h2><h2>W=52 yards</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

perimeter= 510 yards

let the width be x, width=x

length= (4x-5)-----quadruple mean 4 times

Step two:

the expression for perimeter is

P=2L+2W

510=2(4x-5)+2x

510=8x-10+2x

510+10=8x+2x

520=10x

divide both sides by 10

x=520/10

x=52

the width is 52 yards

the lenght is  (4x-5)

L=4(52)-5

L=208-5

L=203 yards

NASA launches a rocket at t=0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by h(t)=−4.9t2+121t
Alenkasestr [34]

NASA launches a rocket at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by

h(t)=-4.9t^2+121t+283

The sea level is represented by h = 0, therefore, to find the corresponding time when h splashes into the ocean we have to solve for t the following equation:

h(t)=0\implies-4.9t^2+121t+283=0

Using the quadratic formula, the solution for our problem is

\begin{gathered} t=\frac{-(121)\pm\sqrt{(121)^2-4(-4.9)(283)}}{2(-4.9)} \\ =\frac{121\pm142.083778...}{9.8} \\ =\frac{121+142.083778...}{9.8} \\ =26.8452834694... \end{gathered}

The rocket splashes after 26.845 seconds.

The maximum of this function happens at the root of the derivative. Differentiating our function, we have

h^{\prime}(t)=-9.8t+121

The root is

-9.8t+121=0\implies t=\frac{121}{9.8}=12.347

Then, the maximum height is

h(12.347)=1029.99

1029.99 meters above sea level.
