A rocket is launched from a tower. The height of the rocket, y in feet, is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by th

e given equation. Find the time that the rocket will hit the ground, to the nearest 100th of second. Y=-16x^2+189x+79

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the rocket y in feet related to time after launch x related by the equation:

Y=-16x^2+189x+79

The rocket will hit the ground when y = 0

The equation will become:

0=-16x^2+189x+79

Rearrange

-16x^2+189x+79 = 0

multiply though by minus

16x^2-189x-79 = 0

Factorize and solve for x:

x = 189±√189²-4(16)(-79)/2(16)

x = 189±√35721+5056/32

x = 189±√40777/32

x = 189±201.93/32

x = 189+201.93/32

x = 390.93/32

x = 12.22secs

hence the rocket will hit the ground after 12.22seconds (to the nearest hundredth of a sec)

PLEASE URGENT HELP!!!

Answer:

The equation is;

y = 1/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a linear model is given as;

y = mx + b

m is the slope while b is the y intercept

As we can see, the y intercept is the origin and that means b is zero

To get the value of m, the slope, we have to use the slope equation

We simply select any two points on the line

We have the points as (6,2) and (15,5)

The equation of the slope is:

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(x1,y1) = (6,2)

(x2,y2) = (15,5)

m = (5-2)/(15-6) = 3/9 = 1/3

So the equation will be;

y = 1/3x

Angles that add up to 90 are Complementary angles.

Two angles that have a common vertex and a common side but do not overlap are Adjacent angles.

Angles that are opposite each other and have the same measurment are vertical angles.

Angles that add up to 180 are Supplementary angles.

Hope this helps!! :D

Answer:

upper left

Step-by-step explanation:

The generic equation for a circle centered at (h, k) with radius r is ...

(x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2

Comparing that equation to the one you have, you can see that ...

-h = 0

-k = +3

r^2 = 9

Then you have (h, k) = (0, -3) and a radius of 3.

The circle has its center on the y-axis 3 units below the x-axis and just touches the x-axis. This is a description of the graph at upper left.
