Question:

A fastball is hit straight up over home plate. The ball's height, h (in feet), from the ground is modeled by h(t)=-16t^2+80t+5, where t is measured in seconds.  Write an equation to determine how long it will take for the ball to reach the ground.

Answer:

t = 5.0625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

h(t)=-16t^2+80t+5

Required

Find t when the ball hits the ground

This implies that h(t) = 0

So, we have:

0=-16t^2+80t+5

Reorder

-16t^2+80t+5 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we have:

t = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

Where

a = -16      b =80      c = 5

So, we have:

t = \frac{-80\±\sqrt{80^2 - 4*-16*5}}{2*-16}

t = \frac{-80\±\sqrt{6400 +320}}{-32}

t = \frac{-80\±\sqrt{6720}}{-32}

t = \frac{-80\±82.0}{-32}

This gives:

t = \frac{-80+82.0}{-32} or t = \frac{-80-82.0}{-32}

t = \frac{2}{-32} or t = \frac{-162}{-32}

t = -\frac{2}{32} or t = \frac{162}{32}

But time can not be negative.

So, we have:

t = \frac{162}{32}

t = 5.0625

<em>Hence, time to hit the ground is 5.0625 seconds</em>

Rewrite the following expression using the properties of logarithms: log2z + 2log2z + 4log9y + 12log9x - 2log2y
Mashcka [7]

The rewritten form of the expression given in the task content in which case, the properties of the logarithm are used is; log2(z³/y²) + log9(y⁴x¹²).

<h3>What is the equivalent expression to the logarithmic expression given in the task content?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the logarithmic expression given in the task content is;

log2z + 2log2z + 4log9y + 12log9x - 2log2y

In which case, all terms are to their respective logarithmic bases.

Hence, it follows that; we have;

log2z³ - log2y² + log9y⁴ + log9x¹²

= log2(z³/y²) + log9(y⁴x¹²)
