A volleyball reaches its maximum height of 13 feet, 3 seconds after its served. Which of the following quadratics could model th

e height of the vollyball over time after it is served. Select all that apply.
A: f(x)=2x^2+12x+5

B: f(x)=-2x^2+12x-5

C: f(x)=-2x^2-12x+5

D: f(x)=-2(x-3)^2+13

E: f(x)=-2(x+3)^2+13

Only selections B and D give a maximum height of 13 at t=3. However, both of those functions have the height be -5 at t=0, meaning the ball was served from 5 ft below ground. This does not seem like an appropriate model.

We suspect ...
• the "correct" answers are probably B and D
• whoever wrote the problem wasn't paying attention.

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Intuitively it's a volleyball game reaching its maximum height, then we must discard the 1st option because of its parameter a >0, and whenever a>0 the parabola makes a curve, rather different than in a volleyball game.

Also, considering Vertex of this parabola by (-b/2a, -Δ/4a) given the fact that the question says the maximum height.

Taking

y= height in feet

x= time in second

Function Vertex (-b/2a, -Δ/4a)=(-3, -13)

A: f(x)=2x²+12x+5 False

B: f(x)=-2x²+12x-5 Function Vertex (-b/2a, -Δ/4a) = (3,23) False

C: f(x)=-2x²-12x+5  Function Vertex (-b/2a, -Δ/4a) = (-3,23) False

D: f(x)=-2(x-3)²+13 Function Vertex (-b/2a, -Δ/4a) = (3,13) True

E: f(x)=-2(x+3)²+13 Function Vertex (-b/2a, -Δ/4a) =(-3,13) False

2) Shane puts aside $40 per week for his monthly car payment. He earns $320 per week.
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

320 divided by 40 = 8

100 divided by 8 = 12.5

100% is 320 dollars, which means that 40 dollars is 1/8 of 320. And 1/8 of 100 is 12.5%

How can I solve 30x-18-5-4x=55
Elden [556K]

\text{Solver for x:}\\\\30x-18-5-4x=55\\\\\text{Combine like terms}\\\\26x-18-5=55\\\\26x-23=55\\\\\text{Add 23 to both sides}\\\\26x=78\\\\\text{Divide both sides by 26}\\\\\boxed{\text{x = 3}}

I need help please. The question is already there. Tysm. 20 points.
Bess [88]

Answer:

$109 and 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

49.05 is the sale price and the discount is 55%. What’s the original price?

price/ 1- discount

49.05/ 1 - 0.55

49.05/ 0.45

109

for the other part

to find the discount subtract final price from original price

94 - 61.10 = 32.9

Which would be 35% in percent form.
