A rocket is launched from a tower. The height of the rocket, y in feet, is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by the given equation. Using this equation, find the
time that the rocket will hit the ground, to the nearest 100th of second.
y=-16x² + 181x + 59

What are the equivalent ratios for 24/2= /3= /5.5=108/ = /15

At the olympic games, many events have several rounds of competition. one of these events is the men's 100-meter backstroke. the upper dot plot shows the times (in seconds) of the top 8 finishers in the final round of the 2012 olympics. the lower dot plot shows the times of the same 8 swimmers, but in the semifinal round. which pieces of information can be gathered from these dot plots? (remember that lower swim times are faster.) choose all answers that apply: a: the swimmers had faster times on average in the final round. b: the times in the final round vary noticeably more than the times in the semifinal round. c: none of the above.

The position of a moving particle is given by the position function: f(t)=-9t-t^2-0.2t^3+0.1t^4 a. at what time does the particle reverse direction? b. when is the displacement positive? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation) c. when is the displacement negative? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation) d. when is the particle’s acceleration positive? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation) e. when is the particle’s acceleration negative? (round one decimal place and answer in interval notation)
