Hi,

I would say that the answer is 28, but it still doesn't add up because when you multiply 12 by 28 you get $3.36 which isn't enough to meet his total, so I tried multiplying 12 by 29 and I got $3.48, which is six cents over his total. So I'm sorry if it is wrong I tried to help to my best ability.

I hope it helps, have a great day/night!!!

Answer:

x₁ > x₂

Step-by-step explanation:

Both actions imply a parable trajectories, since both are projectile shot cases.

Let´s call x₁ maximum distance in the first case

The maximum height is just in the middle of the curve, therefore x₁ the maximum horizontal distance is equal to 60 feet.

In the second case, the parable curve is modeled by:

y = x₂*( 0.08 - 0.002x₂) or y = 0.08*x₂ - 0.002*x₂²

A second degree equation, solving for x₂ and dismissing the value x₂ = 0

we get:

y = 0 ⇒ x₂*( 0.08 - 0.002x₂) = 0 x₂ = 0

And 0,08 - 0.002*x₂ = 0

- 0.002*x₂ = - 0.08

x₂ = 0.08/0.002

x₂ = 40 f

Then x₁ > x₂
