Assume that the dimensions of the room in the plan are a (width ) by b (length),
such that a*b=30.
Since the scale is 1:100, a represents 100a, and b represents 100b.
So the actual dimensions are 100a by 100b.
The area is 100a*100b=a*b*10,000=30*10,000=300,000 (square units)
Answer: 300,000 (square units)
The maximum height is 144 feet.
The maximum height is the y-coordinate of the vertex. To find the vertex, we first use x = -b/2a. For our information, that is x=-64/2(-16) = -64/-32 = 2.
Now we substitute this into the equation:
y = -16(2²) + 64(2) + 80 = -64 + 128 + 80 = 144
