A ball is dropped from a height of 64 feet. Its height, in feet, can be modeled by the function h(t) = -167 + 64, where t is the

time in seconds since it is dropped.

(b) Find how long it takes the ball to fall 36 feet. (Hint: first find its
height.)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Known facts:

  • the ball dropped from a height of 64 feet
  • function h(t) = -16t^{2}  + 64

First question:

  • the ball hits the ground when h(t) = 0, thus we get the equation

                      -16t^{2} +64 = 0\\16t^{2} = 64\\t^{2} =4\\t = 2

     So the ball hits the ground in 2s

Second question

  • to find how long it takes the ball to fall 36 feet, we must set h(t) = 64 - 36 = 28

                      -16t^{2} +64 = 28\\16t^{2} = 36\\t = \frac{6}{4} =1.5s

      So the ball hits the ground in 1.5s

Hope that helps!

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Mr. and Mrs. Bailey hope to send their son to college in eleven years. How much money should they invest no
Ronch [10]

Mr. and Mrs. Bailey need to invest $2906.50 so as to send their son to college.

<h3>Compound interest</h3>

Compound interest is given by:

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

where A is the amount after t years, P is initial amount, r is the rate and n is the times compounded per period

Given that n = 1, r = 9% = 0.09, A = $7500 t = 11. Hence:

7500=P(1+\frac{0.09}{1} )^{1*11}\\\\P=\$2906.50

Mr. and Mrs. Bailey need to invest $2906.50 so as to send their son to college.
