Check the pictures below.
if we knew the roots/solutions of the equation, we can set h(s) = 0 and solve for "s" to find out how many seconds is it when the height is 0.
if you notice in the first picture, when f(x) = 0, is when the parabola hits a root/solution or the ground, for David he'll be hitting the water surface, and the equation that has both of those roots/solutions conspicuous is
h(s) = -4.9(s - 2)(s + 1).
You could graph this, but it is simpler in this case to do it mathematically.
Since the x and values are the same (implying undefined slope) you can subtract the smaller y value from the larger y value. 2.5-1.2=1.3.
Step-by-step explanation:
LET THE Point 1 A and point 2 is B
(AB) ^2=(-9-(-3))^2+ (5-(-6))^2+(-4-7)^2=278
AB=16.67 length unit
Midpoint
X=-9-3/2 =-6
Y=5-6/2=-0.5
Z=-4+7/2=-1.5
40% × 40 is 16. answer is 16
The kite is 105 feet in the air
