What are the measurements?
A quadratic function whose vertex is the same as the y-intercept has the equation
y=x^2+k (where k is the y-intercept, with vertex (0,k))
Since the vertex coincides with the y-intercept, the axis of symmetry is x=0.
The answer is 8/27 just so you know
One acre of land is equal to 4046.86 sq.m.
To know how far they can throw the ball from corner to corner can be interpreted in two ways: throwing the ball diagonally across the field or throwing the ball horizontally across the field. For the first question, since the field is a square, you can use the equation Diagonal of Square = A x sq.root of 2.
In this case, the answer would be 89.97 m.
If the ball is thrown horizontally across the field, then you would only need to know the length of one side of the square, which is the square root of the area. Doing this would give you the answer 63.61 m.
