The parabolic motion is an illustration of a quadratic function
The equation that models that path of the rocket is y = -16/31x^2 + 256/31x - 880/31
<h3>How to model the function?</h3>
Given that:
x stands for time and y stands for height in feet
So, we have the following coordinate points
(x,y) = (5,0), (11,0) and (10,80)
A parabolic motion is represented as:
y =ax^2 + bx + c
At (5,0), we have:
25a + 5b + c = 0
c= -25a - 5b
At (11,0), we have:
121a + 11b + c = 0
Substitute c= -25a - 5b
121a + 11b -25a - 5b = 0
Simpify
96a + 6b = 0
At (10,80), we have:
100a + 10b + c = 80
Substitute c= -25a - 5b
100a + 10b - 25a -5b = 80
75a -5b = 80
Divide through by 5
15a -b = 16
Make b the subject
b = 15a + 16
Substitute b = 15a + 16 in 96a + 6b = 0
96a + 6(15a + 16) = 0
Expand
96a + 90a + 96 = 0
This gives
186a = -96
Solve for a
a = -16/31
Recall that:
b = 15a + 16
So, we have:
b = -15 * 16/31 + 16
b =-240/31 + 16
Take LCM
b =(-240 + 31 * 16)/31
[tex]b =256/31
Also, we have:
c= -25a - 5b
This gives
c= 25*16/31 - 5 * 256/31
Take LCM
c= -880/31
Recall that:
y =ax^2 + bx + c
This gives
y = -16/31x^2 + 256/31x - 880/31
Hence, the equation that models that path of the rocket is y = -16/31x^2 + 256/31x - 880/31

<span>The ratio of 2 similar areas is the square of the ratio of their RADIUS or (sides)
R²=(2/3)² = 4/9 This should be the answer
Whereas R³ = (2/3)³ = 8/27 is the ratio of their volume & not area

Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
4-(-2)+3(3)
4+2+9
15
By definition the area of a rectangle is:
A = l * w
Where,
l: long
w: width
So we have to clear the width:
w = A / l
Substituting the values:
w = (234) / (18) = 13
w = 13 feets
answer
the width, in feet, of the room is 13
I think the answer is either 3/49 or about 0.061
hope this helps.
