the answer is 5.3 cm height.
Answer:
37.8metres
Step-by-step explanation:
The arc of the arrow can be modeled by the equation:
y=-0.02x²+0.65x+4
Where x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from Linda and y is the height (in meters) of the arrow.
The arrow hits the ground when its height (y) is zero.
Therefore, we determine the value(s) of x for which:
y=-0.02x²+0.65x+4=0
Using a calculator to solve the quadratic equation:
x=37.79 or -5.29
Since the distance cannot be a negative value, we ignore -5.29.
The distance from Linda when the arrow hits the ground is 37.8metres (to the nearest tenth)
