Answer:

t = 14.82 and 2.72secs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function of the rocket height expressed as;

h(t) = -4.9t^2+ 86t + 2.1

if the rocket height is at 200m, then;

200 = -4.9t^2+ 86t + 2.1

multiplying through by 10

2000 = -49t^2 + 860t + 21

49t^2 - 860t - 21 + 2000 = 0

49t^2 - 860t + 1979 = 0

Factorize

t = 860±√(860)²-4(49)(1979)/2(49)

t = 860±√739,600-387,884/98

t = 860±√351,716/98

t = 860±593.06/98

t = 860+593.05/98 and 860-593.05/98

t = 1,453.05/98 and 266.94/98

t = 14.82 and 2.72secs

These are the times

sveticcg [70]

a) (x+6)^2-25

b) (-6, -25)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perfect square trinomial! If you have 12x, divide by two and get 6, so we have (x+6)^2+q. Then solve for q. You get q as -25.

For b, we just take the vertex from vertex form. We get x+6=0 so x=-6, and q = -25, so the answer is (-6, -25).

Hope that helped,

Not sure what to do here? Naomi has 50 red beads and white beads. The number of red beads is 1 more than 6 times the number of w
lorasvet [3.4K]
R + w = 50
r = 6w + 1

now we sub ..
6w + 1 + w = 50
7w + 1 = 50
7w = 50 - 1
7w = 49
w = 49/7
w = 7 <== white beads

r = 6w + 1
r = 6(7) + 1
r = 42 + 1
r = 43 <=== red beads

Estimate the annual wages for a clerk who works 50 weeks a year and earns $15 and hour
Pachacha [2.7K]

Let us assume that a person works for 8 hours a day.

Let us assume that the person works for 5 days a week.

Wage earned per hour = $15

So, wage earned in 8 hours = 15*8 = $120

Now, wage earned in 1 day = 120

So, wage earned in 5 days = 120*5 =$600

As the person works for 5 days in 1 week

So, in 50 weeks, he will work = 50*5 = 250 days

So, total number of hours he must have worked = 250*8 =2000 hours

Now, per hour wage = $15

wage in 2000 hours = 15*2000 = $30000

Hence, the estimated wage a person earns in 50 weeks = $30000
