Answer:
- vertex: (7.5, 2.25)
- f(x) = -(x -7.5)² +2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
My favorite "technology" for problems like this is the Desmos graphing calculator app or web service. It easily displays the vertex (and/or zeros) of the function.
Of course, vertex form is ...
f(x) = a(x -h)² +k . . . . . . . . vertex (h, k), leading coefficient 'a'
The solution is found by reading the graph and putting the numbers in the formula. The leading coefficient is copied from the standard form equation.
- vertex: (7.5, 2.25)
- f(x) = -(x -7.5)² +2.25
Answer:
142m
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be solved by simply using the pythagorean theorem, as you stated at the beginning of the problem, which is:
You are given the <em>a</em> side and <em>b</em> side that are needed for this equation, so it's all a matter of plugging in the information you have:
Now, because the <em>c</em> is still squared, you must take the square root of 20200 in order to get the length of just side <em>c</em>:
≈142m
