Hi!
So the original formula for a problem likes this or a quadratic is:
ax^2 + bx+ c
so a is the accelaration; b is the initial velocity; and c is the initial height
so none of those are the zeros, which means c is out
zeros are the x values when y is 0, that also means when the parabola crosses the x axis
so d is out too because the maximum height is the vertex which mean that there would probably be a y value. in some cases the vertex is the zero, but not here
B is out because x isn't time it is distance
your answer is A!
Hope this helps!
Answer: The answer should be 9.2195
Step-by-step explanation:They tell us the point is 2.9 and they are asking the distance from the origin which is zero. So we can use pythagorean theorem. A²+B²=C² Look at it as a triangle. They have given us A and B, so you can find C² using those information. If you plot the point in the line you know that A=2 and B=9. Using the formula will be 2²+9²=C² ⇒ 4+81=C² ⇒ 85=C². To get rid of the power of 2 in c we have to square both side to cancel it out. C would equal 9.2195
Angle b corresponded to angle a
