Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

40-16=24

24/40=0.6

0.6*100=60

First, work out the difference (decrease) between the two numbers you are comparing.

Decrease = Original Number - New Number

Next, divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

% Decrease = Decrease ÷ Original Number × 100

A rocket is launched at 85 ft./s from a launch pad that’s 28 feet above the ground. which equation can be used to determine the

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

$h(t)=-16t^2+85t+28$ is equation of height of rocket.

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A rocket is launched with speed 85 ft/s from a height 28 feet.

Launching a rocket follows the path of parabola. The equation of rocket should be parabolic.

Parabolic equation of rocket is

Formula: $h(t)=\dfrac{1}2gt^2+v_0t+h_0$

g ⇒ acceleration due to gravity (-32 ft/s)

v ⇒ Initial velocity ( $v_0=85\ ft/s$ )

h ⇒ Initial height ( $h_0=28\ feet$ )

h(t) ⇒ function of height at any time t

Substitute the given values into formula

$h(t)=\frac{1}{2}(-32)t^2+(85)t+28$

$h(t)=-16t^2+85t+28$

D is correct.
