Answer:

The simple interest is $720.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

$E = P*I*t$

In which E are the earnings, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

In this problem, we have that:

$P = 6000, r = 0.03, t = 4$

$E = P*I*t = 6000*0.03*4 = 720$

The simple interest is $720.

To find the maximum height you need to find the vertex:(h,k)
Your equation is in vertex form a(x-h)+k and the vertex is (h,k) where k is the maximum height and the h is the distance it went to reach the maximum height.
k=6 so the kangaroo's maximum height is 6 feet.

To find how long is the kangaroo's jump, take a look at the graph. You will notice that the parabola ends at the distance the kangaroo jumped. You will also see that it is the one of the x-intercepts.

-.03(x-14)^2+6=0
-.03(x-14)^2+6-6=0-6
-.03(x-14)^2=-6
-.03/-.03(x-14)=-6/-.03
(x-14)^2=200
[(x-14)^2]^.5=200^.5
x-14=(200)^.5
x-14+14=(200)^.5+14
x≈28.14 feet
The kangaroo jumped a distance of 28.14 feet.

You will notice that the square root of a number gives you two solutions a positive and a negative one. The other solution is -.14, which we know distance is not negative so we do not use that solution. Also, I used the ^.5 instead of using the square root. It is the same.

√2 is irrational

a rational number Q can be expressed in the form $\frac{a}{b}$ where a and b are integers.
