A rocket is shot into the air. The function f (x) = -16x2 + 64x + 8 gives the
height of the rocket (in feet) as a function of the rockets horizontal distance from
where it was initially shot.
a. What was the initial height of the rocket when it was shot?
b. What is the maximum height the rocket reaches in the air?
a. The initial height of the rocket was
feet.
b. The maximum height the rocket reaches is
feet.

Answers

Answer:

A) 8 feet.

B) 72 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function [tex]f(x)=-16x^2+64x+8[/tex] which gives the height of the rocket (in feet) as a function of the rocket's horizontal distance.

Part A)

We want to find the initial height of the rocket when it was shot.

At the initial height, the rocket has not moved anywhere. So, the horizontal distance will be 0.

Therefore, to find the initial height, we will substitute 0 into our function. This yields:

[tex]f(0)=-16(0)^2+64(0)+8[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]f(0)=8[/tex]

Therefore, the initial height was 8 feet.

Part B)

Notice that our function is a quadratic.

Therefore, the maximum height will be given by the vertex of our quadratic.

To find the vertex, we use:

[tex](-\frac{b}{2a},f(-\frac{b}{2a}))[/tex]

Let's label our coefficients. We have [tex]-16x^2+64x+8[/tex]

Therefore, a=-16, b=64, and c=8.

Substitute them into the vertex formula to find the x-coordinate:

[tex]x=-\frac{64}{2(-16)}\\\Rightarrow x=64/32=2[/tex]

Now, to find the maximum height, substitute 2 back into our function f(x):

[tex]f(2)=-16(2)^2+64(2)+8[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]f(2)=-16(4)+64(2)+8\\\Rightarrow f(2)=-64+128+8\\\Rightarrow f(2)=72\text{ feet}[/tex]

Therefore, the rocket reaches a maximum height of 72 feet.

Sebastian drove for 2.2 hours at an average rate of 43.5 miles per hour. He calculates that he drove 95.7 miles. He knows the answer should be near 80, because 40 times 2 is 80. Which best explains Sebastian’s actual solution?

Answers

Answer: A. The actual product is reasonable because it is near 80 but greater than 80. Both factors were rounded down, making the estimate lower than the actual product.

The number of miles did Tina ride when (1 mile ≈ 1.6 kilometers) so it should be considered as the 25 miles.

Calculation of the number of miles:

Since

By the end of Tina’s bike ride, she traveled a distance of 40 kilometers.

And we know that

1 mile ≈ 1.6 kilometers

So,

[tex]= 40 \div 1.6[/tex]

= 25 miles

hence, The number of miles did Tina ride when (1 mile ≈ 1.6 kilometers) so it should be considered as the 25 miles.

What does it mean to divide a number by
a fraction (e.g., ¾)?

Answers

Answer: You can divide a number by a fraction by flipping over the fraction and multiplying them together.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example:

Lets say we wanted to divide 8 by 3/4

8÷[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Change the division symbol into multiplication, and flip over the fraction (a great way to remember doing this is to remember the phrase Copy Dot Flip - Copy the first digit as it is, put a dot for multiplication, and then flip the fraction over)

8 ·[tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Now, just multiply and reduce/simplify the fraction if needed

Final answer is [tex]\frac{32}{3}[/tex], no need to simplify or reduce

The slope of a line is ¾. A different line passes through the points (6, 3) & (-1, 5). Are the lines parallel? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

B. They are not parallel because their slopes are not equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the line that runs through points (6, 3) and (-1, 5):

[tex] slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{5 - 3}{-1 - 6} [/tex]

[tex] slope (m) = \frac{2}{-7} = -\frac{2}{7} [/tex]

Since the slope of the line that passes through points (6, 3) and (-1, 5) is not the same with line that has a slope of ¾, therefore, both lines cannot be parallel.

The answer is "B. They are not parallel because their slopes are not equal."

20x+x-2=4 rational equation​

Answers

Answer:

x = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

20x + x - 2 = 4

Step 2: Solve for x

Combine like terms: 21x - 2 = 4Add 2 to both sides: 21x = 6Divide both sides by 21: x = 6/21Simplify: x = 2/7

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

20(2/7) + 2/7 - 2 = 4

40/7 + 2/7 - 2 = 4

42/7 - 2 = 4

6 - 2 = 4

4 = 4

Answer:

x = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Collect like terms:

20x + x = 21x ----> 21x - 2= 4

Move the constant to the right hand side and change the sign of the constant:

21x = 4 + 2

Calculate:

21x = 4 + 2 ---> 21x = 6

Divide both sides by 21:

21/21 and 6/21 = 2/7

Solution:

x = 2/7 or x= 0.285714
