Answer: The function is y=-\frac{28}{625}(x-35)^2+30.

Explanation:

It is given that Michael Daniels, is standing on his own 10-yard line. He throws a pass toward the opposite goal line. The football is 2 yards above the ground when the quarterback lets it go.

It follows a parabolic path. Reaching its highest point, 30 yards above the ground. It is caught 50 yards downfield at a point 2 yards above the ground.

So, the initial point is (10,2) and the other point is (60,2).

The height function of a football represents a downward parabola. The maximum point of the function is called vertex. So the vertex is (h,30).

The two point (10,2) and (60,2) have same y-coordinate, therefore the function is maximum at the midpoint of both points.

midpoint=(\frac{10+60}{2}, \frac{2+2}{2})=(35,2)

So, the function is maximum at x=35. Hence the vertex is (35,30)

The standard form of the parabola is,

y=a(x-h)^2+k

Where (h,k) is vertex and a is scale factor.

Since vertex is (35,30).

y=a(x-35)^2+30

The initial point is (10,2).

2=a(10-35)^2+30

-28=625a

a=-\frac{28}{625}

So the function of height is.

y=-\frac{28}{625}(x-35)^2+30

The graph of the function is shown below.

Carry out the following osmosis experiment:

Take four peeled potato halves and scoop each one out to make potato cups. One of these potato cups should be made from a boiled potato. Put each potato cup in a trough containing water. Now,

(a) Keep cup A empty.

(b) Put one teaspoon sugar in cup B.

(c) Put one teaspoon salt in cup C.

<h3>(d) Put one teaspoon sugar in the boiled potato cup D.</h3>

<h3>Keep these for two hours. Then observe the four potato cups and answer the following:</h3>

<h3>(i) Explain why water gathers in the hollowed portion of B and C.</h3><h3>(ii) Why is potato A necessary for this experiment?</h3><h3>(iii) Explain why water does not gather in the hollowed-out portions of A and D.</h3>

<h3>(i) Since sugar and salt was present in B and C respectively, water from the trough gathered in the hollowed portions of potato in B and C by the process of osmosis.</h3><h3>(ii) Potato A is necessary for carrying out this experiment because it acts as a control experiment. Control helps us to check what changes occurred during the course of the experiment and helps us to compare the results</h3>

<h3>(iii) Water does not gather in the hollowed portion of potato A as it was empty. Water also does not gather in the cup D because the potato used was boiled which makes it inactive as after boiling its protein structure were denatured, resulting in the disruption of the cell membrane.</h3>
