A soccer ball is kicked toward the goal. The height of the ball is modeled by the function h(t) = −16t2 + 48t where t equals the

time in seconds and h(t) represents the height of the ball at time t seconds. What is the axis of symmetry, and what does it represent? t = 1.5; it takes 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 3 seconds to fall back to the ground

Answer:

  • t = 1.5; it takes 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 3 seconds to fall back to the ground.

Explanation:

<u>1) Explanation of the model:</u>

  • Given: h(t) = -16t² + 48t

  • This is a quadratic function, so the height is modeled by a patabola.

  • This means that it has a vertex which is the minimum or maximu, height. Since the coefficient of the leading (quadratic) term is negative, the parabola opens downward and the vertex is the maximum height of the soccer ball.

<u>2) Axis of symmetry:</u>

  • The axis of symmetry of a parabola is the vertical line that passes through the vertex.

  • In the general form of the parabola, ax² + bx + c, the axis of symmetry is given by x = -b/(2a)

  • In our model a = - 16, and b = 48, so you get: t = - ( 48) / ( 2 × (-16) ) = 1.5

<u>Conclusion</u>: since t = 1.5 is the axys of symmetry, it means that at t = 1.5 the ball reachs its maximum height and that it will take the same additional time to fall back to the ground, whic is a tolal of  1. 5 s + 1.5 s = 3.0 s.

Answer: t = 1.5; it takes 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 3 seconds to fall back to the ground.

Suppose that, in addition to edge capacities, a flow network has vertex capacities. That is each vertex has a limit l./ on how m
storchak [24]

Answer:

See explanation and answer below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The tranformation

For this case we need to construct G' dividing making a division for each vertex v of G into 3 edges that on this case are v_1, v_2 and l(v).

We assume that the edges from the begin are the incoming edges of v_1 and all the outgoing edges from v are outgoing edges from v_2

We need to construct G' = (V', E') with capacity function a' and we need to satisfy the follwoing:

For every v \in V we create 2 vertices v_1, v_2 \in V'

Now we can add a new edge asscoiated to v_1, v_2 \in E' with the condition a' (v_1,v_2) = l(v)

Now for each edges (u,v)\in E we can create the following edge ( u_r, v_1) \in E' and the capacity is given by: a' (u_r, v_1) = a (u,v)

And for this case we can see this:

|V'| = 2|V|, |E'|= |E| +|V|

Now we assume that x is the flow who belongs to G respect vertex capabilities. We can create a flow function x' who belongs to G' with the following steps:

For every edge (u,v) \in G we can assume that x' (u_r ,v_1) = x(u,v)

Then for each vertex u \in V -t and we can define x\(u_1,u_r) = \sum_{v \in V} x(u,v) and x' (t_1,t_2) = \sum_{v \in V} x(v,t)

And after see that the capacity constraint on this case would be satisfied since for every edge in G' on the form (u_r, u_1) we have a corresponding edge in G because:

u \in V -(s,t) we have that:

x' (u_1, u_r) = \sum_{v \in V} x(u,v) \leq l(u) = a' (u_1, u_r)

x' (t_1,t_2) = \sum_{v \in V} x(v,t) \leq (t) = a' (t_1,t_2)

And with this we have the maximization problem solved.  

We assume that we have K vertices using the max scale algorithm.
