Answer:

5 mph, 11 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Together, they cover 24 miles in 1.5 hours, so their total rate of speed is ...

(24 mi)/(1.5 h) = 16 mi/h

If s is the rate of the slower jogger, then s+6 is the rate of the faster one. Their total speed is ...

s + (s+6) = 16

2s = 10 . . . . . . . subtract 6

s = 5 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

s+6 = 11

The rates of the joggers are 5 mph and 11 mph.

A rocket is launched from a tower. The height of the rocket, y in feet is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by the

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the rocket y in feet is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by the given equation i.e.

$y=-16x^2+165x+78$ ......(1)

It is required to find the maximum height reached by the rocket. For maximum height put $\dfrac{dy}{dx}=0$ .

So,

$\dfrac{d(-16x^2+165x+78)}{dx}=0\\\\-32x+165=0\\\\32x=165\\\\x=5.15\ s$

Put x = 5.15 in equation (1).

$y=-16(5.15)^2+165(5.15)+78\\\\y=503.39\ m$

So, the maximum height reached by the rocket is 503.39 m.
