Mathematics

(a)19.6 meters

(b) 1 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the balloon is modeled by the equation:

h = -4.9t^2- 14.7t + 19.6

(a)Since the balloon is thrown from the top of the house, the height of the house is at t=0

When t=0

$h(0) = -4.9(0)^2- 14.7(0) + 19.6\\h=19.6$ meters$

The height of the house is 19.6 meters.

(b)When the balloon hits the ground

Its height, h(t)=0

Therefore, we solve h(t)=0 for values of t.

h = -4.9t^2- 14.7t + 19.6=0

$-49t^2-147t+196=0\\-49(t^2+3t-4)=0\\t^2+4t-t-4=0\\t(t+4)-1(t+4)=0\\(t+4)(t-1)=0\\t+4=0$ or $t-1=0\\t=-4$ or t=1$

Therefore, the ball hits the ground after 1 seconds.

(c)To determine the maximum height, we take the derivative of the function and solve it for its critical point.

$If$ h = -4.9t^2- 14.7t + 19.6\\h'(t)=-9.8t-14.7\\$Setting the derivative equal to zero$\\-9.8t-14.7=0\\-9.8t=14.7\\t=-1.5\\$Therefore, the maximum height, h(t) is:\\h(1.5) = -4.9(-1.5)^2- 14.7(-1.5) + 19.6\\=30.625$ meters$
