Aball is thrown straight up from the top of a building that is 400 ft high with an initial velocity of 64 ft/s. the height of the object can be modeled by the equation s(t) = -16t2 + 64t + 400. determine the time(s) the ball is higher than the building. write your answer in interval notation. then in two or more complete sentence, explain your solution method.

The time(s) the ball is higher than the building: Interval (0,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

s(t)=-16t^2+64t+400

Determine the time(s) the ball is higher than the building:

s(t)>400

-16t^2+64t+400>400

Subtracting 400 both sides on the inequality:

-16t^2+64t+400-400>400-400

-16t^2+64t>0

Multiplying the inequality by -1:

(-1)(-16t^2+64t>0)

16t^2-64t<0

Fatorizing: Comon factor 16t:

16t(16t^2/16t-64t/16t)<0

16t(t-4)<0

t is greater than zero:

t>0→t-4<0→t-4+4<0+4→t<4

Then t>0 ant t<4:

Solution = (0, Infinite) ∩ (-Infinite, 4)

Solution = (0,4)

step-by-step explanation:

to determine whether a given function is even, we simply substitute x with -x in the expression. if the result after simplification is identical to the original equation, then the function is said to be even other wise odd.

f(-x) = (-x)^2 - (-x) + 8

      = x^2 + x +8

the resulting function is not identical to the original one;

f(-x) ≠ f(x)

therefore, f(x) is not an even function
