The height of water shooting from a fountain is modeled by the function f(x) = −4x2 + 24x − 29 where x is the distance from the

spout in feet. Complete the square to determine the maximum height of the path of the water.
−4(x − 3)2 − 29; The maximum height of the water is 3 feet.

−4(x − 3)2 − 29; The maximum height of the water is 29 feet.

−4(x − 3)2 + 7; The maximum height of the water is 7 feet.

−4(x − 3)2 + 7; The maximum height of the water is 3 feet.

Below is the solution:

f(x)=−4(x2−6x+9−9)−29

<span> (</span>x2−6x+9)=(x−3)(x−3)

f(x)=−4((x−3)2−9)−29

f(x)=−4(x−3)2−4(−9)−29

f(x)=−4(x−3)2+36−29

f(x=−4(x−3)2+7

f(x)=−4(x−3)2+7

That's the equation we got by completing the square.

y=a(x−h)2+k

That's the formula of a parabola in "vertex" form. Notice the similarity? The two are equal if we say

y=f(x)

a=−4

h=3

k=7


Therefore the answer is C, <span>−4(x − 3)2 + 7; The maximum height of the water is 7 feet.</span>

Answer:

Option 3 - y= -4(x-3)^2+7; The maximum height of the water is 7 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The height of water shooting from a fountain is modeled by the function f(x) = -4x^2+24x-29 where x is the distance from the spout in feet.

To find : Complete the square to determine the maximum height of the path of the water.

Solution :

f(x) = -4x^2+24x-29

f(x) = -4(x^2-6x)-29

Completing the square by adding and subtracting (\frac{6}{2})^2=3^2=9 in the bracket,

f(x) = -4(x^2-6x+9-9)-29

f(x) = -4((x-3)^2-9)-29

f(x) = -4(x-3)^2+36-29

f(x) = -4(x-3)^2+7

The general vertex form is y=a(x-h)^2+k

On comparing,

a=−4, h=3, k=7

The maximum height of the water is given by y-intercept i.e. k,

The maximum height of the water is 7 feet.

Therefore, Option 3 is correct.

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The correct equation is "y=30x+6147". A further explanation is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

(x1, y1) = (50, 7647)

(x2, y2) = (100, 9147)

As we know,

The slope is,

⇒ m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒     =\frac{9147-7642}{100-50}

⇒     =\frac{1500}{50}

⇒     =30

Now,

⇒ (y-y1)=m(x-x1)

On substituting the given values in the above equation, we get

⇒ y-7647=30(x-50)

⇒ y-7647=30x-1500

On adding "7647" both sides, we get

⇒ y-7647+7647=30x-1500+7647

⇒                        y=30x+6147
