Question

The function h(t)=-4.92t^2+17.69t+575 is used to model an object being tossed from a tall building, where h(t) is the height in meters and t is the time in seconds. Rounded to the nearest hundredth, what are the domain and range? domain: [0, 12.76] range: [1.8, 590.9] domain: [1.80,1276] range: [1.8, 590.9] domain: [1.80,12.76] range: [0, 590.9] domain: [0, 12.76] range: [0, 590.9]

Answer 1

The answer is D.................

Explanation:

Answer 2

We have the following equation:
h(t)=-4.92t^2+17.69t+575

For the domain we have:
We match zero:
-4.92t ^ 2 + 17.69t + 575 = 0
We look for the roots:
t1 = -9.16
t2 = 12.76
We are left with the positive root, so the domain is:
[0, 12.76]

For the range we have:
We derive the function:
h '(t) = - 9.84t + 17.69
We equal zero and clear t:
-9.84t + 17.69 = 0
t = 17.69 / 9.84
t = 1.80
We evaluate the time in which it reaches the maximum height in the function:
h (1.80) = - 4.92 * (1.80) ^ 2 + 17.69 * (1.80) +575
h (1.80) = 590.90
Therefore, the range is given by:
[0, 590.9]

Answer:
the domain and range are:
domain: [0, 12.76] range: [0, 590.9]
