A rocket carrying fireworks is launched from a hill 60 feet above a lake. The rocket will fall into the lake after exploding at

its maximum height. The rocket's height above the surface of the lake is given by the function h(t) = -16t2 + 96t + 60. Part A: What is the maximum height reached by the rocket? Part B: What is the height of the rocket after 2 seconds?

Answer:

<h3>A) 204m</h3><h3>B) 188m</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rocket's height above the surface of the lake given by the function h(t) = -16t^2 + 96t + 60

The velocity of the rocket at its maximum height is zero

v = dh/dt = -32t + 96t

At the maximum height, v  = 0

0 = -32t + 96t

32t = 96

t = 96/32

t = 3secs

Substitute t = 3 into the modeled function to get the maximum height

h(3) = -16(3)^2 + 96(3) + 60

h(3) = -16(9)+ 288 + 60

h(3) = -144+ 288 + 60

h(3) = 144 + 60

h(3) = 204

Hence the maximum height reached by the rocket is 204m

Get the height after 2 secs

h(t) = -16t^2 + 96t + 60

when t = 2

h(2) = -16(2)^2 + 96(2) + 60

h(2) = -64+ 192+ 60

h(2) = -4 + 192

h(2) = 188m

Hence the height of the rocket after 2 secs is 188m

Need help with me question
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

x = -6       x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 +x -30 =0

Factor

What two numbers multiply to -30 and add to 1

6 * -5 = -30

6-5 =1

(x+6) (x-5) =0

Using the zero product property

x+6 =0    x-5=0

x+6-6=0-6    x-5+5=0+5

x = -6       x=5
