If a projectile is fired straight upward from the ground with an initial speed of 224 feet per second, then its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function h(t)= -16t^2.+224t Find the maximum height of the projectile.
Answers
The height reached by the projectile is 784 feet.
What is the maximum height of the projectile?
The projectile experiments an uniformly accelerated motion due to gravity, whose height is represented by the quadratic equation:
h(t) = - 16 · t² + 224 · t
Where t is the time, in seconds.
In this problem we need to find the maximum height reached by the projectile, which can be found by finding the vertex form of the quadratic equation:
h(t) = - 16 · (t² - 14 · t)
h(t) - 16 · 49 = - 16 · (t² - 14 · t + 49)
h(t) - 784 = - 16 · (t - 7)²
The maximum height of the projectile is 784 feet.

Cleo can paint a room in 8 hours, while Phil can paint the same room in 6 hours. If they paint theroom together, how long will it take them to paint the room?How many hours and how many minutes?
Answers
According to the given data we have the following:
Cleo can paint a room in 8 hours, so this is=1/8x
Phil can paint the same room in 6 hours=1/6x
In order to calculate how long it take them to paint the room we would solve the following equation:
(1/6)(x)+(1/8)(x)=1
To solve this equation we would first multiply both sides by 24
Hence:
24*(1/6)(x)+24*(1/8)(x)=24
4x+3x=24
7x=24
x=24/7
x= 3 3/7 hours
Therefore It will take them 3 and 3/7 hours to pain the room.
In minutes it will take to them 205 minutes.

Answers
First, let's write the expression below:
[tex]4b-2c\leqslant12[/tex]Since the expression contains the symbol "<=" (that is, "lesser than or equal to") between two terms, the complete expression is an inequality.
In order to solve this inequality for a given variable, we need to rewrite the inequality such as one side of the inequality has only the wanted variable.
For example, solving the inequality for b, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4b-2c\leqslant12\\ \\ 4b\leq12+2c\\ \\ b\leq\frac{12+2c}{4}\\ \\ b\leq3+0.5c \end{gathered}[/tex]What was the initial population at time t=0?Find the size of the bacterial population after 4 hours.
Answers
Answer;
[tex]\begin{gathered} a)\text{ 195 bacteria} \\ b)\text{ 3,291,055,916 bacteria} \end{gathered}[/tex]Explanation;
a) We want to get the initial population of the bacteria
We start by writing a formula that links the initial bacteria population to a later bacteria population after time t
[tex]A(t)=I(1+r)^t[/tex]where A(t) is the bacteria population at time t
I is the initial bacteria population
r is the rate of increase in population
t is time
Now, let us find r
At t = 10; we know that A(t) = 2I
Thus, we have it that;
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2I=I(1+r)^{10} \\ (1+r)^{10}\text{ = 2} \\ 1+r\text{ = 1.0718} \\ r\text{ = 1.0718-1} \\ r\text{ = 0.0718} \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, let us find I, since we have r. But we have to make use of t= 80 and A(t) = 50,000
Thus, we have;
[tex]\begin{gathered} 50,000=I(1+0.0718)^{80} \\ I\text{ = }\frac{50,000}{(1+0.0718)^{80}} \\ I\text{ = 195} \end{gathered}[/tex]The initial population is 195 bacteria
b) For after 4 hours, we have to convert to minutes
We know that there are 60 minutes in an hour
So, in 4 hours, we have 4 * 60 = 240 minutes
Now, we proceed to use the formula above with I = 195 and t = 240
We have that as;
[tex]\begin{gathered} A(240)=195(1+0.0718)^{240} \\ A(240)\text{ = 3,291,055,916 bacteria} \end{gathered}[/tex]In the diagram below of triangle DEF, G is a midpoint of DE and H is a midpoint of EF. IfGH = 50 -- 87, and DF = 9x + 0, what is the measure of GH? E H D F
Answers
GH = 18
Explanations:From the diagram:
DF = 9x + 0
GH = 50 - 8x
Since G is a midpoint of DE and H is a midpoint of EF, using the midpoint theorem:
DF = 2GH
9x + 0 = 2 (50 - 8x)
9x = 100 - 16x
9x + 16x = 100
25x = 100
x = 100/25
x = 4
Substituting the value of x into GH = 50 - 8x
GH = 50 - 8(4)
GH = 50 - 32
GH = 18
If the carrier transmits 12 kW, what is the modulated power if modulation index is (1/√2) ?
Answers
The modulated power is 15 kW.
The modulated power is given by the formula P_T= P_C (1+ (m_a^2)/2) and is connected to the total power of the carrier signal and the modulation index.
To obtain the modulated power, substitute the values in the given equation and simplify.
Given,
Power of carrier signal (P_C) = 12 kW
= 12000 W
Modulation index ( m_a) = 1/√2
Consequently, when we change the variables in the equation, we get
P_T= P_C (1+ (m_a^2)/2)
=12000 (1+ (1/√2)^2/2)
= 12000 (1+ 1/4)
= 12000 * 5/4
= 3000*5
= 15000 W
= 15 kW
Hence, modulated power is 15 kW.

What you can say about 12th, 18th and the 21st child, depends if these numbers are multiples of 4 (every 4th child is wearing spectacles), 3 (every 3rd child is a girl) and 2 (every 2nd child is wearing a white shirt).
If a numer is multiple of another one, then the quotient between them is an integer number.
for 12th:
12/4 = 3
12/3 = 4
12/2 = 6
12 is multiple of 3, 4 and 6.
Then, 12th child is wearing spectacles, a white shirt and is a girl.
for 18th:
18/4 = 4.5
18/3 = 6
18/2 = 9
18 is multiple of 3 and 2.
Then, 18th child is a girl and is weraing a white shirt

The sum of three consecutive integers is −387. Find the three integers.
Answers
Answer:
-130, -129, -128
Step-by-step explanation:
consecutive integers are when one integer is greater than the previous one and so on... so assuming the smallest integer which we start with is "x", the next integer is "x+1", and the next integer is "x+1+1".
Adding all these together will give us the sum of three consecutive integers:
[tex]x+(x+1)+(x+1+1)[/tex]
Simplifying inside the parenthesis gives us
[tex]x+(x+1)+(x+2)[/tex]
Simplifying the entire expression gives us the following:
[tex]3x+3[/tex]
This is equal to -387 as stated in the problem, so let's set it equal to -387
[tex]3x+3=-387[/tex]
Subtract 3
[tex]3x=-390[/tex]
Divide by 3
[tex]x=-130[/tex]
Since the consecutive integers are just +1, then +2, we can define the three consecutive integers as
-130, -130 + 1, -130 + 2
which simplifies to
-130, -129, -128
