Answer:

Answer: A. Y= -10x -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Steeper line : is a line which is closed to y-axis, or closed vertically.

Since, the standard form of a line is,

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope,

If the absolute value of the slope ( that is, |m| ) is maximum then it is called it has the steepest graph.

For, y=-2x+6,

The absolute value of slope = 2,

For, y =8x-1,

The absolute value of slope = 8,

For, y=-10x-4,

The absolute value of slope = 10,

For, Y=7x+3,

The absolute value of slope = 7,

Since, 2< 7 < 8 < 10

Hence, the line y = -10 x - 4 is closest to y-axis,

⇒ Line y = -10 x - 4 has the steepest graph.

A ball is thrown into the air. The height in feet of the ball can be modeled by the equation h = -16t2 + 20t + 6 where t is the

makkiz [27]

$f(t)=h=-16t^2+20t+6

$

a=-16, b=20, c =6

Δ= $b^2-4ac=20^2-4*(-16)*6=400+384=784$

$\sqrt{Δ}=\sqrt{784}=28$

max:

$p=-\frac{b}{2a}=-\frac{20}{-32}=\frac{20}{32}=\frac{5}{8}$

max heigh: $h=-16(\frac{5}{8})^2+20*\frac{5}{8}+6=-16\frac{25}{64}+\frac{100}{8}+6$

$h=-\frac{25}{4}+\frac{50}{4}+6=\frac{-25+50+24}{4}=\frac{49}{4}$

$h=\frac{49}{4}$ at $t=\frac{5}{8}s$

will fall down at t:

$t=\frac{-20-28}{-32}=\frac{-48}{-32}=\frac{3}{2}=1.5$

$t=1.5s$
