Duffy was analyzing the trajectory made after throwing a football. his coach was able to measure that his throw reached a maximu

gregori [183]

Answer:

4.35 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the time the independent variable and y be dependent variable (height of the ball).

We are told that Duffy figured that the ball left his hand at a height of 5 feet. This means at x equals 0, y was 5 or initial height of ball is 5 feet.

We have been given that Duffy's coach measured that his throw reached a maximum height of 18 feet after 2 seconds. This means that at x equals 2 y was 18.

As point (2,18) represents maximum height of ball, so it will be vertex of parabola.

Since initial height of ball is less than maximum height, so our parabola will be downward opening and leading coefficient will be negative.

We know that vertex form of a downward opening parabola is in form: $y=-a(x-h)^2+k$

$y=-a(x-2)^2+18$

Let us find value of a using point (0,5).

$5=-a(0-2)^2+18$

$5=-a*4+18$

$5-18=-a*4+18-18$

$-13=-4a$

$\frac{-13}{-4}=\frac{-4a}{-4}$

$\frac{13}{4}=a$

Therefore, the equation $y=-(\frac{13}{4})(x-2)^2+18$ can be used to find the height of ball after x seconds.

To find the time it will take the ball to hit the ground, we will substitute y equals 0 in our equation.

$0=-(\frac{13}{4})(x-2)^2+18$

$0-18=-(\frac{13}{4})(x-2)^2+18-18$

$0-18=-(\frac{13}{4})(x-2)^2$

$-18*(\frac{4}{13})=-(x-2)^2$

$\frac{72}{13}=(x-2)^2$

Taking square root of both sides of our equation we will get,

$\sqrt{\frac{72}{13}}=x-2$

$x-2\pm 2.35339$

$x-2=2.35339\text{ (or) } x-2=2.35339$

$x-2+2=2.35339+2\text{ (or) } x-2+2=-2.35339+2$

$x=4.35339\text{ (or) } x=-0.35339$

$x\approx 4.35\text{ (or) } x\approx -0.35$

Since time can not be negative, therefore, the ball will hit the ground approximately after 4.35 seconds.

Lamonte and Fwam own competing taxicab companies. Both cab companies charge a one-time pickup fee for every ride, as well as a c

maksim [4K]

The cab rate model for Fwam will be given as y=2.8x+4.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

Here we have an equation model for Lamonte y=2.2x+2.5 here y is the total cost and x is the distance in miles.

So here Fwam charges a $4 pick up fee and $2.80 per mile. The equation model will be:-

y=2.8x+4.

Hence cab rate model for Fwam will be given as y=2.8x+4.

The nurse researcher is reading about linear regression. what is linear regression

ANEK [815]

Hello there.

Linear regression is a useful tool that allows calculating approximate values for a function that passes through given points(with the best error possible). It is very useful in science to make an estimation of the comportment of movement, electricity and some decays.

For example, I will relate a case in a physics lab: We calculated the positions of a car in an air rail and the times. With this information, I was able to make a linear regression to calculate the Position function for that case.
