The height in feet of the missile after 5 seconds in the air is; 875 ft

<h3>How to find the height of a Projectile?</h3>

We are given the  quadratic function of the height in terms of time, x, in seconds as; h(x) = - 17x² + 260x

where;

h(x) is height after x seconds

x seconds is time of missile in air when thrown.

Thus, after five seconds, we have;

h(5) = - 17(5)² + 260(5)

h(5) = -425 + 1300

h(5) = 875 feet

Complete question is;

A missile is launched from the ground. Its height, h(x), can be represented by a quadratic function in terms of time, x, in seconds.

After 1 second, the missile is 243 feet in the air; after 2 seconds, it is 452 feet in the air.

The height of the can be represented by this function:

h(x) = - 17x² + 260x

Find the height, in feet, of the missile after 5 seconds in the air.

Answer:

When you have two sets of data, one that represents an independent variable (X) and another that represents a dependent variable (Y) (it is a response of the first variable). A diagram called scatterplot can be generated to present the ordered pairs (X, Y) in the Cartesian plane to see how the two variables are related.

In this case the independent variable (X) is the age variable of the calf and the dependent variable (Y) is the weight of the calf.

The diagram can be seen in the attached file.

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (8, −8) and a directrix of y = −6?
yarga [219]
The vertex is exactly half way between directrix and focus. In this case the vertex is (8,-7)
               (h,k)

P is the distance between the vertex and either the directrix or focus,  in this case p = 1. 

a = 1/(4p)  or 1/(4*1) or 1/4

write the equation in vertex form

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

y = 1/4(x-8)^2 -7
