Answer:

t = 9.7 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

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 the given equation as :

y=-16x^2+147x+80

We need to find the time that the rocket will hit the ground, to the nearest 100th of second.

When the rocket hit the ground, So,

-16x^2+147x+80=0\\\\x=-0.515\ s\ and\ 9.70\ s

Neglecting negative tim,

t = 9.7 s

Hence, it will hit the ground at 9.7 seconds.

This table represents the number of inches, n, a plant grows after m, months in a new pot.
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: Slope = 5/4

y-intercept = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the table:

Months, m            Plant height in inches, n

0                           2

2                           4.5

4                            7

6                            9.5

We want a linear relationship to represent this table.

A linear relationship can be written as:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-axis intercept.

For a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope can be written as:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).

In this case we can select any pair of points, for example, i will choose the first two:

(0, 2) and (2, 4.5)

Then the slope is:

a = (4.5 - 2)/(2 - 0) = (2.5/2) = 1.25 = 5/4

Then our line can be written as:

y = (5/4)*x + b

To find the value of b, we can replace the values of any of the points in the equation, for example, i will use the point (0, 2) or x = 0, y = 2.

2 = (5/4)*0 + b

2 = b

Then our equation is:

y = (5/4)*x + 2.

Slope = 5/4

y-intercept = 2
