HELP!!! I WILL DO ANYTHING
The function H(t) = -16t2 + vt + s shows the height H (t), in feet, of a projectile launched vertically from s feet above the ground after t seconds. The initial speed of the projectile is v feet per second. Part A: The projectile was launched from a height of 82 feet with an initial velocity of 60 feet per second. Create an equation to find the time taken by the projectile to fall on the ground. (2 points) Part B: What is the maximum height that the projectile will reach? Show your work. (2 points) Part C: Another object moves in the air along the path of g(t) = 10 + 63.8t where g(t) is the height, in feet, of the object from the ground at time t seconds. Use a table to find the approximate solution to the equation H(t) = g(t), and explain what the solution represents in the context of the problem? [Use the function H(t) obtained in Part A, and estimate using integer values] (4 points) Part D: Do H(t) and g(t) intersect when the projectile is going up or down, and how do you know? (2 points)

@triciaal
A:0=-16t2+60t+82
YEAH, I have that part. but what do you mean by A;0 .. I have the numbers plugged in .. just solving is difficult
@jim_thompson5910
A: 0. Sry. Forgot the space
Just sayin for problem a.
either way what do you mean??
ohh
hello?
The equation for problem a is 0=-16t2+60t+82
I know that
part A is definitely 0 = -16t^2+60t+82. So you have the correct answer there for that part. initial velocity = 60 ft/s v = 60 initial height = 82 ft s = 82
for part b, consider the equation y = -16x^2+60x+82 it is in the form y = ax^2 + bx + c
okay... now what do i do?
yes
notice how a = -16, b = 60, c = 82 plug the values of a and b into h = -b/(2a) and tell me what you get for h
-1.875
it should be positive
you lost a sign somewhere
yea. it is . i accidentally put it there
now plug x = 1.875 into y = -16x^2+60x+82 to get the value of y what is the value of y?
y=1094.5 ?
that's too big
,,,,, but i plugged the number in and I'm sure i solved it correctly..
-16x^2+60x+82 -16(1.875)^2+60(1.875)+82 ... replace every x with 1.875 now compute `-16(1.875)^2+60(1.875)+82`
yeah.. thats what i had. .let me retry
138.25??
much better
okay great.. next step?
For c, u make the equation in a equal 10 +63.8t 10+63.8t=-16t2+60t+82 In which you solve for t, then plug it in in one of the equations
HUH ^^^^
So when the time is t = 1.875 seconds, the height of the object is 138.25 ft which is the peak height |dw:1439942710928:dw|
