The flight of a cannonball toward a hill is described by the parabola y = 2 + 0.12x - 0.002x 2 . the hill slopes upward along a

path given by y = 0.15x. where on the hill does the cannonball land?

To find where on the hill the canonball lands 
So 0.15x = 2 + 0.12x - 0.002x^2 
Taking the LHS expression to the right and rearranging we have -0.002x^2 + 0.12x -
0.15x + 2 = 0. 
So we have -0.002x^2 - 0.03x + 2 = 0  
I'll multiply through by -1 so we have
 0.002x^2 + 0.03x -2 = 0. 
This is a quadratic eqn with two solutions x1 = 25 and x2 = -40 since x cannot be negative x = 25. The second solution y = 0.15 * 25 = 3.75

Which graph represents the piece wise- defined function f(x) =​
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

<h2>The fourth graph, from left to right, is the correct answer.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given piecewise function is

f(x)=\left \{ {{-x+4 \ ; \ 0\leq x

Notice that the domain of the function specifies that, from zero to three, the function represents a decreasing (because the variable is negative) straight line. When the function is defined from 3 to infinite, the function is a constant of 5.

<em>So, the right graph must shows first a decreasing line, where the initial point is solid and the final point is empty, as the fourth fraph (from left to right), then it must show a horizontal line with an initial point solid.</em>

<em />

Therefore, the fourth graph, from left to right, is the correct answer.
