80

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the first one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah 80 ft/s

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The initial speed is equal to the speed the ball would reach if dropped from 100 feet. so I used the position function but not the one that uses meters, instead the one that uses ft, so 16t^2+v(t)+h Same thing as last problem. So you find how long it takes to drop from 100 feet. 16t^2=100 then you use that t and plug it in to the velocity function v(t) = 32(t)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so for the second question is 3200?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got

OpenStudy (anonymous):

168.75 ft is incorrect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Try 320ft

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It was incorrect. that was my last try

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you should tell me that you have x amount of tries lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what was the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

answer was 640

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh so double that hmmm i wonder how they got that...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea I know how they got it now...do you want to know?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i used the vertex formula to get the time when it reaches the maximum height -b/2a so -80/2(-2.5) = 16 plug in 16 into the position function -2.5t^2+80t so -2.5(16)^2+80(16)=640
