Suppose a toy rocket is launched vertically upward from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 128 feet per second. i

f air resistance is ignored, the rocket's h height after t seconds is given by the equation h = −16t2 +128t + 100. How long will the rocket's flight last? (to the nearest tenth of a second) A) 7.6 seconds B) 7.9 seconds C) 8.7 seconds D) 9.3 seconds

Answer:

Option C)

t = 8.7 s

Step-by-step explanation:

To quickly solve this problem, we can use a graphing tool or a calculator to plot the equation.

Please see the attached image below, to find more information about the graph

The projectile formula is

h(t) = a*t^2 + v*t + h0

Where,

v = initial vertical velocity of the rocket in feet per second

h0 = initial height of the rocket in feet

h(t) = −16t^2 +128t + 100

If we look at the graph, we can find the point in which the height becomes zero. The value for t at this point will represent the rocket's fight duration

For this problem,

t = 8.717 s

So 13 divided by 3 is 4 but where is the 4 coming from because 4 groups of 3 is 12 so 13 minus 12 is 1 so how dose the 4 make it

13/3= 4.25 because.....



13-12 is 1.

SO:


When you have your problem  set up, you have 4, and then a 1 left over. You turn it into a fraction.


Make 4 and 1/4, then put it as a mixed number, 4 1/4



or you can keep dividing by adding a decimal then zeroes and keep solving until you get 4.25 which is equivalent to 4 1/4
