Can you please and comma's? Without commas everything is confusing.
So the formula is y=mx+b
the answer is y=-1x or -x+3 in cleaner form
y=-1x+3
Answer:
The speed is 20.8 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
If a projectile ascends vertically, and after 3 seconds it reaches its maximum height, calculate the velocity that it carries to the middle of its downward trajectory
Let the maximum height is h and initial velocity is u.
From first equation of motion
v = u + at
0 = u - g x 3
u = 3 g.....(1)
Use third equation of motion

Let the speed at half the height is v'.

The vertex would be (-5, 7).
The parabola would open downwards because of the negative sign at the very beginning of the equation. If that negative sign wasn't there, it would open upwards.
Don't think clever or anything. I just used a simple graphing calculator, and most classes encourage the use of these calculators.
