The quadratic equation  is y = -0.15x² + 2x + 5.5 , Option D is the correct answer.

The complete question is

If a person who is 5.5 feet tall throws a baseball into the air, the path can be modelled using the table of values, where x represents the time in seconds and y is the height of the ball in feet.

(table is in the photo below)

Which quadratic equation models the data in the table?

y= −0.25x2 + 2x + 5.5

y= −0.35x2 + 2x + 5.5

y= −0.27x2 + 3x + 5.5

y= −0.15x2 + 2x + 5.5

The quadratic equation represented by the table is y = -0.15x² + 2x + 5.5

<h3>What is an Equation ?</h3>

When  two algebraic expressions are linked with an equal sign , the expression formed is called an Equation.

The standard form of the Quadratic equation is

y = ax² + bx + c

here a, b and c are constants.

From the given data in the table

at point (0, 5.5)

5.5 = a(0)² + b(0) + c          

at point (1, 7.35)

7.35 = a(1)² + b(1) + c    

at point (2, 8.9)

8.9 = a(2)² + b(2) + c    

The system of equations will be solved to determine the value of a,b and c

a= -0.15, b = 2, c = 5.5

Therefore , The quadratic equation  is y = -0.15x² + 2x + 5.5 .

Solve the system of linear equation 8X plus 5Y equals 18 and 6X plus Y equals -2 by using the linear Combination method Emmaus d
Hunter-Best [27]

\text{The solution is } x = \frac{-14}{11} \text{ and } y = \frac{62}{11}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>

8x + 5y = 18 ------- eqn 1

6x + y = -2 -------- eqn 2

Multiply eqn 2 by -5

-30x -5y = 10 ----- eqn 3

Add eqn 1 and eqn 3 so that y terms gets eliminated

8x + 5y = 18

-30x -5y = 10

( + ) --------------

-22x = 28

Divide both sides by -22

x = \frac{28}{-22}\\\\x = \frac{-14}{11}

Substitute the x value in eqn 1

8(\frac{-14}{11}) + 5y = 18\\\\\frac{-112}{11} + 5y = 18\\\\5y = 18 + \frac{112}{11}\\\\5y = \frac{310}{11}\\\\y = \frac{62}{11}

\text{Thus the solution is } x = \frac{-14}{11} \text{ and } y = \frac{62}{11}
