Answer:
7.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
4/5=6/x
cross multiply
4x=30
x=7.5
Part a), solve this system of equations:
x + y = 5
x - y = 2.25
2x = 7.25
x = 3.625
y = 1.375
part b), solve this system of equations:
x + y = 5
x = 3y
y = 1.25
x = 3.75
Answer:
MATH
Step-by-step explanation:
The flight is in the shape of a parabola with a vertex 5 feet above the water and 1/2 * 33 = 16.5 feet horizontally from the point of leaving the water
y = a(x - h)^2 + k
where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola and here it is (5 , 16.5), so we have the function:-
y = a(x - 16.5)^2 + 5
when x = 0 y = 0 so
0 = a(-16.5)^2 + 5
which gives a = -0.018365
So our function for the flight path is
y = -0.018365(x - 16.5)^2 + 5 Answer
