Question

A game requires players to throw a ball into a target. The table below shows values from the function that represents one path of the thrown ball, where x represents the horizontal distance the ball travels in feet and f(x) represents the height of the ball in feet.
If the ball enters the target at the heights point in its path, based on the table, what is the height of the target?

1.5 feet
4 feet
28 feet
29 feet

just took the test :)

Answer 2

Answer:

29 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached table.

The given table shows values from the function that represents one path of the thrown ball, where x represents the horizontal distance the ball travels in feet and f(x) represents the height of the ball in feet.

Now, the ball will be at maximum height when x = 1.25 feet distance horizontally. And the height of the ball at horizontal distance x = 1.25 feet is f(1.25) = 29 feet.

If the ball enters the target at the heights point in its path, based on the table, then the height of the target is 29 feet. (Answer)
