A model rocket is launched with an initial upward velocity of 126 ft/s. The rocket's height h (in feet) after 1 seconds is given

by the following
=126t-16t^2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(t) = -16t² + 126t

for what values of t did this function deliver 50 ft of height ?

50 = -16t² + 126t

-16t² + 126t - 50 = 0

the general solution to such a squared equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

x = t

a = -16

b = 126

c = -50

t = (-126 ± sqrt(126² - 4×-16×-50))/(2×-16) =

= (-126 ± sqrt(15876 - 3200))/-32 =

= (-126 ± sqrt(12676))/-32 =

= (-126 ± 112.5877436...)/-32

t1 = (-126 + 112.5877436...)/-32 = -13.41225644.../-32 =

= 0.419133014... ≈ 0.42 seconds

t2 = (-126 - 112.5877436...)/-32 = -238.5877436.../-32 =

= 7.455866986... ≈ 7.46 seconds

so, this means, right after launch the ticket reaches 50ft (from below) after 0.42 seconds, and then, when it falls back down, it will reach 50ft again (this time from above) after 7.46 seconds of flight time.

Is the function shown in the graph one-to-one?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

  yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is of a function (one output for every input) that also passes the horizontal line test (one input for every output). Hence it is one-to-one.

For a <em>function</em>, the key for it being one-to-one is that it pass the horizontal line test.
