The function h(t) = –16t2 + 96t + 6 represents an object projected into the air from a cannon. The maximum height reached by the object is 150 feet. After how many seconds does the object reach its maximum height?

2 seconds
3 seconds
6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

This answer can be found in the h value for the vertex of a parabola, (h, k). The k value is the max height and we were already given that information. We need to solve for h. There's an easy way and a really complicated way...I'll show you the easy way because it's actually quite useful to know, especially when doing a lot of work with quadratics!

The formula to find h is

and in our quadratic, a = -16, b = 96 and c = 6. Filling in what we need:

so

h = 3

At 3 seconds the max height of 150 feet is reached.

answer: add the !

step-by-step explanation: then we will answer

13

step-by-step explanation:

169-1=168

168-3=165

165-5=160

160-7=153

153-9=144

144-11=133

133-13=120

120-15=105

105-17=88

88-19=69

69-21=48

48-23=25

25-25=0

since it took 13times to completely subtract it hence its square root is 13
