Question

While playing mini golf, you hit the ball off of a wall to attempt at making it in the hole. The ball is located at (5,4) and the hole is located at (9,8). The point where the ball hits the wall is (7,0). Write an equation for the path of the ball and then determine if you will make your putt.

Answer 1

The answer to this question is:
While playing mini golf, you hit the ball off of a wall to attempt at making it in the hole. The ball is located at (5,4) and the hole is located at (9,8). The point where the ball hits the wall is (7,0). Write an equation for the path of the ball and then determine if you will make your putt.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Step 1:
Hit=9,8
Ball=5,4
R=7,0(This will be the hit point)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Step 2:
(Ball)B'=7+(7-5)4=(9,4)
 BR: y-4=(0-4)/(7-5)(x-5)→→→→→→→→→→→→y=-2x+14
 RB': y-4=(4-0)/(9-7)(x-9)→→→→→→→→→→→→y=2x-14
