The function f(t) = 4t2 − 8t + 8 shows the height from the ground f(t), in meters, of a roller coaster car at different times t.
Write f(t) in the vertex form a(x − h)2 + k, where a, h, and k are integers, and interpret the vertex of f(t).f(t) = 4(t − 1)2 + 2; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 2 meters from the groundf(t) = 4(t − 1)2 + 2; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 4 meters from the groundf(t) = 4(t − 1)2 + 4; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 1 meter from the groundf(t) = 4(t − 1)2 + 4; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 4 meters from the ground
f(t) = 4(t − 1)2 + 4; the minimum height of the roller coaster is 4 meters from the ground
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is a quadratic where t is time and f(t) is the height from the ground in meters. You can write the function f(t) = 4t2 − 8t + 8 in vertex form by completing the square. Complete the square by removing a GCF from 4t2 - 8t. Take the middle term and divide it in two. Add its square. Remember to subtract the square as well to maintain equality.
The three angles of a triangle should equal 180 so add 52+34 which equals 86.Then subtract 86 from 180 to get the third angles measure which is 94 so the answer is 94.
