To get the points at which the two boats meet we need to find the equations that model their movement:
Boat A:
vertex form of the equation is given by:
f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k
where:
(h,k) is the vertex, thus plugging our values we shall have:
f(x)=a(x-0)^2+5
f(x)=ax^2+5
when x=-10, y=0 thus
0=100a+5
a=-1/20
thus the equation is:
f(x)=-1/20x^2+5
Boat B
slope=(4-0)/(10+10)=4/20=1/5
thus the equation is:
1/5(x-10)=y-4
y=1/5x+2
thus the points where they met will be at:
1/5x+2=-1/20x^2+5
solving for x we get:
x=-10 or x=6
when x=-10, y=0
when x=6, y=3.2
Answer is (6,3.2)
Write this as an equation and solve

The number is 30
Answer:
a) at x=0.5 y=2 and at x=1 y=2 this similarity in values shows that the solution for x is between 0.5 and 1
c) The x solution will be between x=0.0 and x=0.7 .
There is a similarity in values of y at x=0.6, y=2.4 and at x=0.7 , y=2.4
d) For x= (0.6+0.7)/2 = 1.3/2 =0.65
For y= (2.4+2.3)/2 =4.7/2=2.35
Approximate solution is (0.65, 2.35)
