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.

The table shows a linear relationship between x and y
irga5000 [103]

We have been given a table that shows a linear relationship between x and y. We are asked to find the rate of change change of y with respect to x.

To solve our given problem, we will find the slope of the line passing through the given points.

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Let us find slope of line using points (-20,96) and (-2,15).

m=\frac{15-96}{-2-(-20)}

m=\frac{-81}{-2+20}

m=\frac{-81}{18}

m=-4.5

Therefore, the rate of change of y with respect to x is -4.5.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9. f(g(-n))

g(-n) = -(n²+5) = -n²-5

f(g(-n)) = 2n+1 (-n²-5 )

2n(-n²-5)+1(-n²-5 )

-2n³-10n-n²-5

-2n³-n²-10n-5

n²(-2n-1) +5(2n-1)

(n²+5)(2n-1)

10. (2x+2)(x³+3)

2x(x³+3)+2(x³+3)

2x⁴ + 2x³ +6x +6

2x³(x+1)+6(x+1)

(2x³+6)(x+1
