For this case we have the following equation:
 h (t) = - 12t2 + 36t
 When the object hits the ground we have:
 - 12t2 + 36t = 0
 We look for the roots of the polynomial:
 t1 = 0
 t2 = 3
 Therefore, the time it takes the object to hit the ground is:
 t = 3 s
 Answer:
 
the time when the object hits the ground is:
 
t = 3 s

Answer:

3 seconds is the time when the object hits the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of a free falling object at time t can be found using the function is given by:

h(t)=-12t^2+36t         ....[1]

where,

h(t) is the height in feet

t is the in seconds.

We have to find the time when the object hits the ground.

⇒h(t) = 0

Substitute this in [1] we have;

-12t^2+36t =0

⇒12t^2-36t = 0

⇒12t(t-3) = 0

⇒t = 0 and t = 3

Since, time cannot be 0.

⇒t = 3 seconds

Therefore, the time when the object hits the ground is, 3 seconds

Given the trinomial 2x2 − 5x + 3, what is the value of the Discriminant and what can be said about the solutions.
valina [46]
The formula to finding a discriminant would be b^2-4ac, the b value of this trinomial being -5, the a value being 2, the c value being 3. Then, you plug the values in the equation and solve: (-5)^2-4(2)(3)
This would simplify to 1, meaning there are two solutions since the discriminant value is positive. If it is 0, there is one solution, if it is negative, then there are no real solutions.

The sum of 4 consecutive numbers is equal to the sum of the next 3 consecutive numbers. Find the largest number.​
timurjin [86]

Answer:

The answer is: The largest number is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = the number

n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) + (n + 3) = (n + 4) + (n + 5) + (n + 6)

4n + 6 = 3n + 15

n = 9

Proof:

9 + 10 + 11 + 12 = 19 + 23 = 42

13 + 14 + 15 = 27 + 15 = 42

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!!  :-)

The pressure at sea level is 1 atmosphere and increases at a constant rate as depth increases. When Sydney dives to a depth of 2
mylen [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that pressure at sea level is 1 atmosphere and increases at a constant rate as depth increases.

We are provided two points as (0,1) and (23,3.3). To find function's formula we will find the line which passes through these points.

First of all we will find slope of this line.

Now we will find equation of this line in slope intercept form.

Our equation for this line will be .

Now let us write this for x as a function of p,

Therefore, our function's formula will be p(x) = 0.1x + 1.
