Part A:The graph below shows the height of a kicked soccer ball f(x), in feet, depending on the distance from the kicker x, in feet  

X Intercept=(0,0) it represents the time the ball was not kicked at all  

X intercept=(16,0)  

the feet away from the starting point is 16ft the location or distance the ball is away from the starting point once landed.  

Maximum: is 10  

intervals:it increased(0 to 8) decreased (8 to 16)  

when the ball was 8 ft away from the kicker horizontally, it was 10 feet in the air then it landed an additional 8 feet away from the kicker that was 16 feet away one it landed after going a maximum of 10 feet.  

Part B: m=(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)  

(x1, y1) (x2, y2)  

(8,10) (13, 7)  

m = (7-10)/(13-8) = -3/5

Because the vertex of the parabola is at (16,0), its equation is of the formy = a(x-10)² + 15
The graph goes through (0,0), thereforea(0 - 10)² + 15 = 0100a = -15a = -0.15
The equation is y = f(x) = -0.15(x - 10)² + 15
The graph is shown below.
Part A
Note that y = f(x).
The x-intercepts identify values where the function or  y=0. The x-intercepts occur at x=0 and x=20, or at (0,0) and (20,0).
The maximum value of y occurs at the vertex (10, 15) because the curve is down due to the negative leading coefficient of -0.15.
The curve increases in the interval x = (-∞, 10) and it decreases in the interval x = (10, ∞).
Part B
When x=12, y = -0.15(12 - 10)² + 15 = 14.4When x=15, y = -0.15(15 - 10)² + 15 = 11.25
The average rate of change between x =12 to x = 15 is(11.25 - 14.4)/(15 - 12) = -1.05
This rate of change represents the slope of the secant line from A to B. It approximates the rate at which f(x) decreases in the interval x =[12, 15].

Explain how you can tell when a formula represents a length an area or a volume
AlekseyPX
Do you mean how you can tell between an area formula and a volume formula? Well usually like on a reference sheet it says the shape and the letter a or v, a representing area and v representing volume. I hope this helps, if it doesn't please tell me in the comment section

Suppose you are determining the growth rate of two species of plants. Species A ls 25 cm tall and grows 3 cm per month. Species
exis [7]

Answer: Last Option

H (m) = 25 + 3m\\H (m) = 10 + 8m

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial height of the plant of species A is 25 cm and grows 3 centimeters per month.

If m represents the number of months elapsed then the equation for the height of the plant of species A is:

H (m) = 25 + 3m

For species B the initial height is 10 cm and it grows 8 cm each month

If m represents the number of months elapsed then the equation for the height of the plant of species B is:

H (m) = 10 + 8m

Finally, the system of equations is:

H (m) = 25 + 3m\\H (m) = 10 + 8m

The answer is the last option

Which of the following is a trinomial?
Masja [62]
Although you didn't provide any answer choices:

A trinomial is an expression with exactly three terms that can't be combined an example would be this

x^2 - 3x + 1

None of those terms can be combined

x^2 + 3 - 4 has three terms but it isn't considered a trinomial because you can simplify it to x^2 - 1 which is known as a binomial because it has 2 terms in it's simplified form.

hope this helps C:
