The equation for a projectile's height versus time is h(t)=-16t^2+Vt+h. A tennis ball machine serves a ball vertically into the

air from a height of 2 feet, with an initial speed of 110 feet per second. what is the maximum height, in feet, the ball will attain?

Answer:

The maximum height  is 191.063 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily solve this question by plotting the graph of the equation below

h(t)=-16t^2+Vt+h

Where

h = initial height = 2ft

V = initial speed = 110 ft/s

t = time in seconds

Please, see attached image below

The maximum height corresponds to

191.063 ft

scoray [572]
<span>In the question "Harriet earns the same amount of money each day. Her gross pay at the end of 7 work days is 35h + 56 dollars. Which expression represents her gross pay each day" To obtain the expression that represents her gross pay each day, we divide the given expression by 7 to get (35h + 56) / 7 = 35h / 7 + 56 / 7 = 5h + 8 Therefore, the expression that represents her gross pay each day is 5h + 8.</span>

An astronaut on the moon throws a baseball upward. The astronaut is 6 ft, 6 in. tall, and the initial velocity of the ball is 40
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

0.14 s

Step-by-step explanation:

s = -2.7 t² + 40t + 6.5

Let s = 12

12 = -2.7t² + 40t + 6.5     Subtract 12 from each side

-2.7t² + 40t + 6.5 - 12 = 0

      -2.7t² + 40t - 5.5 = 0

Apply the <em>quadratic formula </em>

x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

a = -2.7; b = 40; c = -5.5

x = \frac{-40\pm\sqrt{40^2 - 4\times (-2.7) \times (-5.5)}} {2(-2.7)}

x = \frac{-40\pm\sqrt{1600-59.4}}{-5.4}

x = \frac{-40\pm\sqrt{1540.6}}{-5.4}

x = \frac{-40\pm 39.25}{-5.4}

x = 7.41 ± 7.27

x₁ = 0.14; x₂ = 14.68

The graph below shows the roots at x₁ = 0.134 and x₂ = 14.68.

The Moon’s surface is at -12 ft. The ball will be 12 ft above the Moon’s surface (crossing the x-axis) in 0.14 s.

The second root gives the time the ball will be 12 ft above the Moon’s surface on its way back down.

8_murik_8 [283]
We can solve this equation by using the Square Root Method.
First, take the square root of each side of the equation:
(x-8)^2 = 144 becomes x-8 = 12
Then add 8 to both sides.
x=20

The original lawn was d. 20 feet by 20 feet.

State, with an​ explanation, whether the​ mean, median, or mode gives the best description of the following average. The average
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The mean is the better method.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to meassure the average height is throught mean. The mean of a sample is the average of that sample's height, and it will be a good estimate for the population's average height.

The mode just finds the most frequent height. Even tough the most frequent height will influence the average height, knowing only what height is the most frequent one doesnt give you enough informtation about how the height is centrally distributed.

As for the median, it is fine to use the median of a sample to estimate the median of the population, but if you use the median to estimate the average height you may have a few issues. For example, if you include babies in your population, the babies will push the average height down a lot and they are far below te median height. This, as a result, will give you a median height of a sample way above the average height of the population, becuase median just weights every person's height the same, while average will weight extreme values more, in the sense that a small proportion of extreme values can push the average far from the median.
