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

An animal shelter has 104 cats and dogs. The ratio of cats to dogs is 5:3. How many cats are at the shelter?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

65 cats

Step-by-step explanation:

cats: dogs: total

5:     3:        5+3=8

We need 8 to be 104

104/8 = 13

Multiply each by 13

cats: dogs: total

5*13:   3*13:  8*13

65        39     104

There are 65 cats and 39 dogs
