The magnification is the ratio between the size of the image h_i and the size of the original object h_o:
M= \frac{h_i}{h_o}
The sign of the magnification contains another piece of information: if it's positive, then the image is upright, if it's negative, the image is inverted. In our problem, the image is inverted, so the magnification will have a negative sign, and it will be
M=(-) \frac{50 cm}{80 cm}=-0.63

In a game of basketball, a forward makes a bounce pass to the center. The ball is thrown with an initial speed of 4.8 m/s at an
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
The equation to be used here is the trajectory of a projectile as written below:

y = xtanθ +/- gx²/2v²(cosθ)²
where
y is the vertical distance
x is the horizontal distance
θ is the angle of trajectory or launch angle
g is 9.81 m/s²
v is the initial velcity

Since the angle is below horizontal, let's use the minus equation. Substituting the values:

- 0.8 m = xtan15° - (9.81 m/s²)x²/2(4.8 m/s)²(cos15°)²
Solving for x,
x = 2.549 m

However, we only take half of this distance because it was specified that the distance asked before bouncing. Hence, the horizontal distance is equal to 1.27 m.
