An object is launched directly in the air at a speed of 48 feet per second from a platform located 12 feet above the ground. The

position of the object can be modeled using the function f(t)=−16t2+48t+12, where t is the time in seconds and f(t) is the height, in feet, of the object. What is the maximum height, in feet, that the object will reach?

Answer:

  48 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For the quadratic ax^2 +bx +c, the axis of symmetry is x = -b/(2a). For the given quadratic, which defines a parabola opening downward, the axis of symmetry defines the time at which the maximum height is reached.

  t = -48/(2(-16)) = 1.5

Then the maximum height is ...

  f(1.5) = (-16·1.5 +48)1.5 +12 = (24·1.5) +12

  f(1.5) = 48

The maximum height the object will reach is 48 feet.

kifflom [539]

Answer:

15/3 + (6.5 + 4.2) - 0.6 = 15.1

Step-by-step explanation:

You can first reduce the fraction to 5 when you multiply by 3, then calculate what's in the parenthesis. So now you have 5 + 10.7 - 0.6, then just solve from left to right. Hope this helps

Solve the inequality -2z-3&lt;5. what is the value of z?
agasfer [191]

Hey there!

The answer to your question is z > -4

We can solve this like it is an equation, with one exception. When you divide or multiply by a negative number, in an inequality, you have to flip the inequality sign.

-2z - 3 < 5           add 3 to both sides

     -2z < 8          divide both sides by -2, and flip the inequality sign

         z > -4      

Good luck! Hope it helps, and have a great day!
