The path of the ball is an illustration of absolute equation.

The equation of the path is: y =- \frac{12}7|x- 4.8| + 6.4

The given parameters are:

(h,k) = (4.8,6.4) --- the vertex (i.e. the point where the ball hits the wall)

(x_1,y_1) = (2,1.6)

(x_2,y_2) = (7.6,1.6)

An absolute function is represented as:

y = a |x - h| + k

Substitute (h,k) = (4.8,6.4)

y = a |x - 4.8| + 6.4

Substitute (x_1,y_1) = (2,1.6) for x and y

1.6 = a|2 - 4.8| + 6.4

1.6 = a|- 2.8| + 6.4

Remove absolute bracket

1.6 = 2.8a + 6.4

Collect like terms

2.8a = -6.4+1.6

2.8a =- 4.8

Solve for a

a =-\frac{4.8}{2.8}

Simplify

a =-\frac{12}{7}

Substitute a =-\frac{12}{7} in y = a |x - 4.8| + 6.4

y =- \frac{12}7|x- 4.8| + 6.4

Hence, the equation of the path is: y =- \frac{12}7|x- 4.8| + 6.4

See attachment for graph that models the path

What figure appears to be the image of figure h after a dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 and a rotation of 180 degrees?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Figure D

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the scale factor of the dilation is 1/2, that means the dilation is a reduction

so

the answer is between the Figure C and Figure D

but  

a rotation of 180° eliminate the Figure C

therefore

The answer is the Figure D
