The Height H(t) (in feet) of a projectile fired vertically into the air from the ground is given by the equation H(T) = -16t^2 + 96t, where t is time (in sec) after the launch. A) How long will it take the projectile to reach its maximum height?

B) What is the maximum height?

C) How long does it take the projectile to reach the ground again.

a) 3s

B) 144m

C) 6s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height modeled by the function;

H(T) = -16t^2 + 96t,

The body will reach its maximum height when dh/dt = 0 (when velocity is zero)

dh/dt = -32t + 96

0 = -32t + 96

32t = 96

t = 96/32

t = 3s

Hence it will take the projectile 3s to reach its maximum height'

B) To get the maximum height we will substitute t = 3 into the equation

H(T) = -16t^2 + 96t,

H(3) = -16(3)^2 + 96(3)

H(3) = -144+ 288

H(3) = 144m]

Hence the maximum height is 144m

C) The projectile reaches the ground at h = 0

H(T) = -16t^2 + 96t,

0= -16t^2 + 96t,

16t² = 96t

16t = 96

t = 96/16

t = 6

Hence it will take the projectile 6s to reach the ground again

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|

step-by-step explanation:

there are 36 inches in a yard

25 : 36 = 0.69 yards (you can round to 0.70)
