Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a) 25 feet
b) Base width 23.57 feet
Step-by-step explanation: The expression:
h(x) = -0,18*x² + 25
is a quadratic function ( a parable). as a < 1 open down
The vertex of the parable is V(x,y)
a) V(x) = - b/2a = 0/2a V(x) = 0 to find V(y) we make use of the original equation and plugging x = 0
y = - 0.18*x² + 25 ⇒ y = 0 + 25 ⇒ y = 25
The Vertex is V ( 0 , 25 )
Now vertex in this case is the maximum height.
h(max) = 25 feet
b) To find how wide is the base of the tunnel. We have to consider that for h = 0 we are at ground level therefore the two roots of the quadratic equation will give the wide of the base of the tunnel
Then
h (x) = -018*x² +25 ⇒ 0 = -018*x² +25 ⇒ x² = 25/0.18
x² = 138.89
x = ± 11.79 ft
So we found interception with x axis and wide of the base is
2 * 11.79 = 23.57 feet
