Answer:
5.2seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Fredrick threw a ball from the top of a building. The height of the ball, in feet, after it is thrown is modeled by the function
The modeled function is given as
h(t) = –16t^2 +64t + 100,
We can see this is a quadratic equation, we can solve using quadratic formula, Below
= -b±(√b^2 -4ac)/2a
Where
a=-16, b=64, c=100
FROM THE ATTACHMENT
We have too answers t= -1.20s and t=5.20s
Therefore,it take 5.20s for the ball to reach the ground (h=0). Because "t" cannot be negative here

To transform it into percent we want to have 100 into denominator. The easiest way is divide numerator and denominator by 3 (thats because than it doesnt change the value of fraction), so:
- its the result
Answer:
-10
-5
5
Step-by-step explanation:
From the answers given, you probably mean f(x) = x^3 + 10x2 – 25x – 250
The Remainder Theorem is going to take a bit to solve.
You have to try the factors of 250. One way to make your life a lot easier is to graph the equation. That will give you the roots.
The graph appears below. Since the y intercept is -250 the graph goes down quite a bit and if you show the y intercept then it will not be easy to see the roots.
However just to get the roots, the graph shows that
x = -10
x = - 5
x = 5
The last answer is the right one. To use the remainder theorem, you could show none of the answers will give 0s except the last one. For example, the second one will give
f((10) = 10^3 + 10*10^2 - 25*10 - 250
f(10) = 1000 + 1000 - 250 - 250
f(10) = 2000 - 500
f(10) = 1500 which is not 0.
==================
f(1) = (1)^3 + 10*(1)^2 - 25(1) - 250
f(1) = 1 + 10 - 25 - 250
f(1) = -264 which again is not zero
