A rocket is launched from a tower. The height of the rocket, y in feet, is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by the given equation. Using this equation, find the time that the rocket will hit the ground, to the nearest 100th of second.(Quadratic Word Problems (Profit/Gravity)
y=-16x^2+121x+83

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The rocket will hit the ground after about 8.20 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the rocket y, in feet, x seconds after launch is modeled by the equation:

[tex]y=-16x^2+121x+83[/tex]

We want to find the time at which the rocket will hit the ground.

If it hits the ground, the height of the rocket y will be 0. Thus:

[tex]0=-16x^2+121x+83[/tex]

We can solve for x. Factoring (if possible at all) or completing the square can be tedious, so we can use the quadratic formula:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

In this case, a = -16, b = 121, and c = 83. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-(121)\pm\sqrt{(121)^2-4(-16)(83)}}{2(-16)}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-121\pm\sqrt{19953}}{-32}[/tex]

Divide everything by -1 and simplify the square root. The plus/minus will remain unchanged:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{121\pm3\sqrt{2217}}{32}[/tex]

Therefore, our two solutions are:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{121+3\sqrt{2217}}{32}\approx 8.20\text{ or } x=\frac{121-3\sqrt{2217}}{32}\approx -0.63[/tex]

Since time cannot be negative, we can ignore the second solution.

Therefore, the rocket will hit the ground after about 8.20 seconds.

What is the measure of X?
Angles are not necessarily drawn to scale

Answers

Answer:

Your answer would be 37°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since BC and DE are parallel, certain angles will be the same, such as the missing interior angle of the triangle and ∠DAF, which will also have the same measure as x.

We know that the sum of all of the interior angles of a triangle must equal 180°. So, we add 41 and 102 to get 143. This means that the missing interior angle must be 37°, since 37+143=180.

As mentioned above, because BC and DE are parallel, the missing interior angle has the same measure as ∠DAF, which is a vertical angle to x, and therefore also has the same measure. So, the measure of x is 37°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry: [tex]x=\frac{-b}{2a}[/tex] when the equation is [tex]y=ax^2+bx+c[/tex]

The given equation is:

[tex]y=x^2-6[/tex]

To make the a and b values more easily identifiable, we can rewrite it like this:

[tex]y=1x^2+0-6[/tex]

Now, we can tell that a=1 and b=0. Plug these into the equation [tex]x=\frac{-b}{2a}[/tex] :

[tex]x=\frac{-(0)}{2(1)}\\x=0[/tex]

Therefore, the equation for the axis of symmetry for the parabola is x=0.

They gave us the quest to find the adjacent side, so we can cross off SOH. The angle of elevation is 38 and the angle is adjacent to the right angle(side) and they gave us the opposite which is 200. Now we can also cross off the CAH because they didnt give us or ask for the hypotenuse. SO now solving time.

Mr. Bond wrote the inequality –46 < –34. Write a sentence about a real-life situation that compares the values from his inequality.

Answers

Answer:

We have the inequality:

-46 < -34

This naturally happens because -46 is at the left of -34 in the number line, meaning that -46 is smaller than -34.

An example to see this is suppose that these numbers represent money.

Because the numbers are negative, then these represent money you owe.

-46 means that you owe $46

-34 means that you owe $34

Then if we are counting the money you have, owing $34 means that your money is larger than if you owe $46.

Another example is if these numbers represent distance under the surface of the water.

-46 means that you are 46 ft under the surface of the water

-34 means that you are 34 ft under the surface of the water.

Clearly, in the second case your altitude is higher than in the first one, so again, the inequality is true.

Solve the inequality. g + 6 > 5

Answers

Answer:

g > -1

Step-by-step explanation:

g + 6 > 5

You want g alone on the3 left side.

6 is being added to g, so subtract 6 from both sides of the inequality.

g + 6 - 6 > 5 - 6

g > -1

Answers

Answer:

2a. aₙ = 12 * -2ⁿ⁻¹; a₈ = -1536

2b. aₙ = 4 * 3ⁿ⁻¹; a₈ = 8748

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric sequence formula is aₙ = a₁ * rⁿ⁻¹.

2a:

a₈ = 12 * -2⁸⁻¹ {Subtract 1 from 8 to get 7}

a₈ = 12 * -2⁷ {2⁷ is 128. Since the exponent is odd, this will be negative.}

a₈ = 12 * (-128) {Multiply 12 by -128 to get -1536.

a₈ = -1536

2b:

a₈ = 4 * 3⁸⁻¹ {Subtract 1 from 8 to get 7)

a₈ = 4 * 3⁷ {7 is the 3rd number after 4 (a multiple of 4). As a result, this will end in a 7. 3⁷ is 2187.}

a₈ = 4 * 2187 {Multiply 4 by 2187 to get 8748}

a₈ = 8748
