Answer:

C. Robbie's glider

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S -The exact question is -

Given - Melissa and Robbie are flying remote control gliders.

The altitude of Melissa's glider, h(s), in feet, is modeled by this function, where sis time, in seconds, after launch.

m(s) = 0.4(s³ - 11s² + 31s – 1)

The altitude of Robbie's glider is modeled by function r, where sis time, in seconds, after launch.

To find - Which glider reaches the greater maximum altitude in the first 6 seconds after launch?

A. Neither glider reaches a maximum altitude on the given interval.

В. Melissa's glider

C. Robbie's glider

D. Both gliders reach the same altitude on the given interval.

Proof -

At t = 6 sec,

Melisa glider is

h(6) = 0.4((0.6)³ - 11(0.6)² + 31(0.6) – 1)

      = 0.4( 0.216 - 3.96 + 18.6 - 1 )

      = 0.4(13.856) = 5.5424

⇒h(6) = 5.5424

∴ we get

At t = 6 seconds, Melissa glider is at the altitude of 5.54 feet

Now,

From the figure, we can see that,

At t = 6 seconds, Robbie's glider is approximately at an altitude of 13 feet

Now,

As 13 > 5.5

So,

Robbie's glider is at maximum height in 6 seconds after the launch.

So,

The correct option is - C. Robbie's glider

The height of a building is 1417 ft. How long would it take an object to fall to the ground from the top? Use the formula s = 16
Lemur [1.5K]

Given :

The height of a building is 1417 ft.

To Find :

How long would it take an object to fall to the ground from the top.

( Use the formula s = 16t² where s is the distance, in feet traveled by an object falling freely from rest in seconds. )

Solution :

Putting value of height in given equation, we get :

16t^2 = 1417\\\\t^2 = \dfrac{1417}{16}\\\\t^2 = 88.5625\\\\t = \sqrt{88.5625}\\\\t = 9.41 \ seconds

Therefore, time taken by object to reach the ground is 9.41 seconds.

Let f be the function given by f(x) = x+4(x−1)(x+3) on the closed interval [−5,5]. On which closed interval is the function f gu
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x+4(x^2+2x-3)=4x^2+9x-12

f'(x)=8x+9

f'(x)=0,gives x=-9/8

f(-5)=-5+4(-5-1)(-5+3)=-5+4*-6*-2=43

f(-9/8)=-9/8+4(-9/8-1)(-9/8+3)

=-9/8+4*-17/8*15/8

=-9/8-255/16

=-273/16=-17 1/16

f(5)=4*5^2+9*5-12=100+45-12=133

absolute maximum=133

absolute minimum=-17 1/16

Add and/or Subtract the following, Simplify Completely
Margaret [11]
First, we need to equalize the denominator. If the denominator multiplies by (x+1), so does the numerator. If the denominator multiplies by (x-1), so does the numerator.
Look into my attachment at the second row.

Second, because the first fraction and the second fraction have the same denominator, you can join them into one fraction.
Look into my attachment at the third row.

Third, simplify the numerator.
Look into my attachment at the fourth to the fifth row

Fourth, simplify the denominator.
Look into my attachment at the sixth to the seventh row.

You throw two four-sided dice. Let the random variable X represent the maximum value of the two dice. Compute E(X). Round your a
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

E(X)=3.125

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that two four sided dice.

Then , the sample space

{(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(2,1),(2,2),(2,3),(2,4),(3,1),(3,2),(3,3),(3,4),(4,1),(4,2),(4,3),(4,4)}

Total number of outcomes=16

Let the random variable X represent the maximum value of the two dice

Outcomes                            X                                 P(X)

(1,1)                                          1                                 1/16

(1,2),(2,1),(2,2)                                   2                        3/16

(1,3),(2,3),(3,1),(3,2),(3,3)                    3                           5/16  

(1,4),(3,4) ,(2,4),(4,1),(4,2),(4,3),(4,4)    4                            7/16

Using the probability formula

P(E)=\frac{Favorable\;outcomes}{Total\;number\;of\;outcomes}

Now,

E(X)=\sum_{i=1}^{n}x_iP(x_i)

E(x)=1(1/16)+2(3/16)+3(5/16)+4(7/16)

E(x)=\frac{1+6+15+28}{16}

E(x)=\frac{50}{16}=3.125
