Answer:
4 ft
7.2 ft
20 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
When the balloon is shot, x = 0.
y = -0.05(0)² + 0.8(0) + 4
y = 4
The balloon reaches the highest point at the vertex of the parabola.
x = -b / 2a
x = -0.8 / (2 × -0.05)
x = 8
y = -0.05(8)² + 0.8(8) + 4
y = 7.2
When the balloon lands, y = 0.
0 = -0.05x² + 0.8x + 4
0 = x² − 16x − 80
0 = (x + 4) (x − 20)
x = -4 or 20
Since x > 0, x = 20.
Answer: 20-4x
Explanation:
20(a number) minus 4 times x
1+2=3. 4/10+2/10=6/10. 3+ 6/10=3 6/10
Answer:
x = −10 and x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
x2 + 6x = 40
Subtract 40 from each side
x^2 + 6x -40 =0
Factor, what 2 numbers multiply to -40 and add to 6
10 * -4 = -40 10+-4 = 6
(x+10) (x-4) = 0
Using the zero product property
x+10 =0 x-4=0
x=-10 x=4
