This is the quadratic function:
h(x)=ax²+bx+c
We have two points:
(1,58)
(2,112)
Now, we calculate this quadratic funtion.
we assume that h(0)=0
Therefore:
a(0)²+b(0)+c=0
c=0
(1,58)
a(1)²+b(1)=58
a+b=58 (1)
(2,112)
a(2)²+b(2)=112
4a+2b=112
2a+b=56 (1)
With the equations (1) and (2) we make a system of equations:
a+b=58
2a+b=56
we can solve this system of equations by reduction method.
-(a+b=58)
2a+b=56
---------------------
a=-2
-2(a+b=58)
2a+b=56
-------------------
-b=-60 ⇒ b=60
The function is:
h(x)=ax²+bx+c
h(x)=-2x²+60x
Now find the height, in feet, of the rock after 10 seconds in the air.
h(10)=-2(10)²+60(10)
h(10)=-200+600=400
Answer: 400 ft.
The answer is no solution.
hope that helps!
There are 1760 yards in a mile
2 miles = 3520 yards
he runs 80 yards per practice (4×20)
3520÷80= 44
he needs to do the practice 44 times.

There are 128 oz in a gallon
he brought two gallons, meaning 256 oz
each cup holds 8 oz
256 ÷ 8 = 32
he can serve 32 cups.
Answer:
7.2
Step-by-step explanation:
To reach point D from point C, you need to add 4 to the x-value of point C and take away 6 from the y-value. These numbers are the sides of the hypothetical triangle.
The Pythagorean Theorem states that
. If we plug the side lengths in for a and b, we get
. This can be simplified to
, or
. If we root both sides, we find that c is equal to
, which is slightly more than 7, at around 7.2.
Answer:
Esma can fit 3 packages in the box because 20+10+10=30 and 5+2+2=9 so if you add up 9 three times you get 27 and that is the closest number you can get before going over.
