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

The table gives the scores of 6 students from a class of 25 in a competitive exam. the point estimate of the mean score for the
Ymorist [56]

The mean of the scores if 6 students in a competitive exam is 25 marks.

Given scores of 6 students are: 10,30,50,40,20 in a competitive exam.

We have to find out the mean of the mark of 6 students in a competitive exam.

Mean is the sum of all the values in a set of data, such as numbers, measurements, divided by the number of values. It is also known as average.

Mean=∑X/n

∑X=10+30+50+40+20

=150

N=6

Now to calculate the mean we have to divide 150 by number of students which is 6.

Mean=150/6

=25 marks.

Hence the mean of the scores of 6  students is 25 marks.

Question is incomplete as it should include :

Marks of students =10,30,50,40,20.

What is the slope and y-intercept of 6x-5y=13
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The slope is 6/5 and the y intercept is -13/5

Step-by-step explanation:

6x-5y=13

Solve for y

Subtract 6x from each side

6x-6x-5y=-6x+13

-5y = -6x+13

Divide by -5

-5y/-5 = -6x/-5 +13/-5

y = +6/5x -13/5

This is in slope intercept form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 6/5 and the y intercept is -13/5

Answer:

the common difference is 5.4 and yes, this is an arithmetic sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

Each new term is derived by adding 5.4 to the previous term:

2.1 + 5.4 = 7.5,

7.5 + 5.4 = 12.9,

and so on,

so the common difference is 5.4 and yes, this is an arithmetic sequence.
