1. First calculate the positive root of the quadratic using your preferred formula. I got a solution
. That gives you the distance the ball traveled from d=0 (small hill). So the answer is A.
2. The domain is [0,2.121...]. The range is from 0 to the max height. The d for which the ball is the highest is given by the formula x = -b / 2a = -3.3/(-3.2) = 1.031... so the max is 1.902... So the range is [0,1.902...] So the answer is C.
The correct answer is it is a figure with at least 3 straight sides. When you think of a square or a triangle they both have at least 3 sides that are straight. A circle doesn't have any straight sides so it is not a polygon.
You can prove that the other answer is wrong because of two things:
The definition of a polygon is a plane figure with at least three straight sides.
Also, when you think of most shapes what do they all have in common? The have at least three straight sides
