<h2>Hello!</h2>

The graph is attached.

To graph a parabola we need to know the following:

- If the parabola is open upwards or downwards

- They axis intercepts (if they exist)

- The vertex position (point)

We are given the function:

$f(t)=-16t^{2}+64t+4$

Where,

$a=-16\\b=64\\c=4$

For this case, the coefficient of the quadratic term (a) is negative, it means that the parabola opens downwards.

Finding the axis interception points:

Making the function equal to 0, we can find the x-axis (t) intercepts, but since the equation is a function of the time, we will only consider the positive values, so:

$f(t)=-16t^{2}+64t+4\\0=-16t^{2}+64t+4\\-16t^{2}+64t+4=0$

Using the quadratic equation:

$\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}=\frac{-64+-\sqrt{64^{2}-4*-16*4} }{2*-16}\\\\\frac{-64+-\sqrt{64^{2}-4*-16*4} }{2*-16}=\frac{-64+-\sqrt{4096+256} }{-32}\\\\\frac{-64+-\sqrt{4096+256} }{-32}=\frac{-64+-(65.96) }{-32}\\\\t1=\frac{-64+(65.96) }{-32}=-0.06\\\\t2=\frac{-64-(65.96) }{-32}=4.0615$

So, at t=4.0615 the height of the softball will be 0.

Since we will work only with positive values of "x", since we are working with a function of time:

Let's start from "t" equals to 0 to "t" equals to 4.0615.

So, evaluating we have:

$f(0)=-16(0)^{2}+64(0)+4=4\\\\f(1)=-16(1)^{2}+64(1)+4=52\\\\f(2)=-16(2)^{2}+64(2)+4=68\\\\f(3)=-16(3)^{2}+64(3)+4=52\\\\f(4.061)=-16(4.0615)^{2}+64(4.0615)+4=0.0034=0$

Finally, we can conclude that:

- The softball reach its maximum height at t equals to 2. (68 feet)

- The softball hits the ground at t equals to 4.0615 (0 feet)

- At t equals to 0, the height of the softball is equal to 4 feet.

Put them into y=mx+b
y=1/3x -1
y=2/3x-4
Graph them. Where they touch is your answer. No touch? No solution. Same line? Infinite solutions.
Second set: Same thing.
Solution to first set is (9,2)

You have a wooden rod which is 24 1/2 inches long. Carlos needs a piece which is 8 3/4 inches long and Amanda needs a piece whic

ipn [44]

Answer:

8 3/4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of the rod = 24 1/2 inches

Carlos = 8 3/4 inches

Amanda = 6 3/8 inches

length of the rod remaining = Total length - ( Carlos + Amanda)

= 24 1/2 - (8 3/4 + 6 3/8)

= 49/2 - (35/4 + 51/8)

= 49/2 - ( 75+51/8)

= 49/2 - 126/8

= 196-126/8

= 70/8

= 8 6/8 inches

= 8 3/4 inches

Length of rod remaining = 8 3/4 inches

The population of a bacteria colony doubles every 6 hours. For example, starting with a sample of 10 bacteria, after 6 hours the

almond37 [142]

Answer:

If the bacteria grow for six hours, each bacterium will divide 3 times per hour × 6 hours = 18 times.

Every time the bacteria reproduce, the number doubles.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!!

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Part A: 140

Step-by-step explanation:

Line ACE is a straight line meaning it equals 18 degrees. To find out what Angle CEF is you have to subtract 40 from 180. That gives you 140 degrees.

Hope its helpful!
