I will assume you mistyped this question. For y = -1/16x^2 + 4x + 3, the answers to this question are
a) 3 feet
b) 67 feet
c) 64.741 feet
For a) we note that at x = 0, that is the instant where the ball leaves the hand. y(0) = 0.
For b), we find the vertex of y = -1/16x^2 + 4x + 3
y = -1/16x^2 + 4x + 3
y = -1/16(x^2 - 64x) + 3
y = -1/16(x^2 - 64x + 1024 - 1024) + 3
y = -1/16((x-32)^2 - 1024) + 3
y = -1/16(x-32)^2 + 64 + 3
y = -1/16(x-32)^2 + 67
The vertex is at (32,67) so 67 is the maximum height.
For c), we find the x-intercepts with the quadratic formula on
y = -1/16x^2 + 4x + 3=0:
x = [ -b ± √b^2 - 4ac ] / (2a)<span>
x = [ -4 ± √4^2 - 4(-1/16)(3) ] / (2(-1/16))
x = -0.741, 64.741
Only the positive solution, so 64.741 feet </span>
Okay to split a segment in half you just need to find the midpoint of the two endpoints. Mathematically this is just the average of the coordinates of the endpoints which is:
mp=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)
Which in this case is:
mp=((-2+3)/2, (4+7)/2)
mp=(1/2, 11/2)
mp=(0.5, 5.5)
So the x-coordinate by itself is just 0.5, or answer c.
I got chu UwU, the answer is B cause it is smaller
If i'm not wrong,i think the answer is:
30%=0.3
X=0.3+12=12.3
