Robert threw a rock off a bridge into the river. The distance from the rock to the river is modeled by the equation h=-16ť – 16t

+ 60, where h is the height in feet and t is the time in seconds. Find how long it took the rock to enter the water.​

Answer:

1.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

h=-16t² – 16t+ 60

When the rock enter the water, the height is 0. ... h=0

0 = -16t² – 16t+ 60 = -4 * (4t² - 4t +15) = -4* (2t - 3) (2t +5)

2t-3=0   or 2t+5 = 0

t = 3/2  or t = -5/2   (time can't be negative)

t = 3/2   or 1.5

If an object is projected upward from ground level with an initial velocity of 128 ft per sec, then it's height in feet after t
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: t= 4 seconds

Maximum height = 256 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the object projected upwards after t seconds is given by

s(t)=-16t^2+128t.

The expression is a quadratic equation. When this equation is plotted on a graph, height against time, it takes the shape of a parabola whose vertex represents the maximum height attained by the object.

To get the value of t at the maximum height,

t = -b/2a

From the equation,

a = -16

b = 128

t = -128/-2×-16

= -128 /- 32= 4

it will take 4 seconds to reach its maximum height

To find maximum height attained, put t= 4 in the equation

s(t)=-16t^2+128t

S = -16× 4^2 + 128×4

S = -256+512

S = 256 feet
