The last one is the only one that makes sense according to the standard position function.  -16t^2 is the pull of gravity on an object in free fall, and the height is 120 feet above the ground.  Hopefully that's what you need since there's no graph we can refer to

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The explanation that best provides the real-world scenario is:

If an object is dropped from a height of 120 feet, the function                    

                          h(t)=-16t^2+120

gives the height of the object after t seconds.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

a)

If an object is dropped from a height of 120 feet, the function h(t)=-16t^2-120 gives the height of the object after t seconds.

This option is incorrect.

Since when t=0 we have:

           h(t)= -120

This is not possible as the object is above the ground and hence must have positive height initially.

b)

If an object is dropped from a height of -16 feet, the function h(t)=-16t^2+120 gives the height of the object after t seconds.

This option is incorrect.

Since a object when is dropped from some height then it must be a positive height.

Also, when t=0 we have: h(t)= 120 feet.

This means that the object is dropped from a height of 120 feet.

c)

If an object is dropped from a height of 120 feet, the function h(t)=-16t^2+120 gives the height of the object after t seconds.

In this when t=0 we have:

h(t)=120 that means the height of the object initially was 120 feet and then it decreases with the increase in time as the object will reach the ground with the time increase and hence height will decrease.

               Hence, this option is correct.

A private plane is traveling due east at a rate of 160 mph. A south wind is blowing 30 mph. What is the actual velocity of the p
photoshop1234 [79]

The resultant velocity of the plane is the sum of the two velocity vectors which are perpendicular to each other. See the attached figure.

The magnitude of the resultant velocity is

\sqrt{160^2+30^2}= \sqrt{26500}=162.79 \;mph.

The approximate value of the actual velocity of the plane is 163 \;mph. Correct choice is (D).

Dough says that the opposite of -2/5 is 5/-2 is he correct
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

No he is not correct. As the answer would be -2/5 = -0.4 and 5/-2 = -2.5 as the answer is also not opposite.

the coordinates of points a and b are (2,4) and (-2,-4) respectively. what is the slope of the line that connects the two points
solmaris [256]

we are given two points as

(2,4) and (-2,-4)

Let's assume

first point as (x1,y1)=(2,4)

so, x1=2 and y1=4

Second  point as (x2,y2)=(-2,-4)

so, x2=-2 and y2=-4

now, we can use slope formula

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

now, we can plug values

m=\frac{-4-4}{-2-2}

now, we can simplify it

m=2

so, slope is 2 ..................Answer
