Answer:
10.8
Step-by-step explanation:
AB can be calculated using the formula 
The coordinates of A are when x = -2, y = -2
At B, x = 8, y = -6
Let,


Plug the values into the formula.




nearest tenth
Answer:
This time I was told the answer is 14
Let V = the launch velocity
Let θ = the launch angle
Let d = the horizontal distance traveled
Ignore air resistance.
The horizontal component of velocity is
u = V cos θ
The time of flight is
t = d/(V cosθ) = (d/V) secθ
Create a table of θ versus t as shown below.
θ t/(d/V)
---- ----------
45 1.4142
40 1.3054
35 1.2208
30 1.1547
The graph shows that as the launch angle decreases below 45°, the time of flight decreases.
Therefore arrow b (θ < 45°) arrives first.
Answer: Arrow b arrives first.
Since we always want to have an a which equals 1 so then we don't have to do AC method, a longer process, we're going to want to take out the -1.
-1(x^2 - x - 42)
Then, we want to know what two number multiply to equal c (-42 here) and add up to equal b (-1 here). Those two numbers would be -7 and 6 since -7(6) = -42 and -7 + 6= -1.
So then from here we can just plop these numbers into (x+ __).
1(x-7)(x+6)
This is your final answer, A.
