ANSWER: -3/x^2
The negative exponent correlates to the x. In order for the exponent to be positive, it changes from the numerator to the denominator.
The median of your data set will be 25.5
Answer:
maximum height is 4.058 metres
Time in air = 0.033 second
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the equation height h
h = -212t^2 + 7t + 4
What is the toy's maximum height?
Let us assume that the equation is a perfect parabola
Time t at Maximum height will be
t = -b/2a
Where b = 7 and a = - 212
t = -7/ - 212 ×2
t = 7/ 424 = 0.0165s
Substitute t in the main equation
h = - 212(7/424)^2 + 7(7/424) + 4
h = - 0.05778 + 0.115567 + 4
h = 4.058 metres
Therefore the maximum height is 4.058 metres
How long is the toy in the air?
The object will go up and return to the ground.
At ground level, h = 0
-212t^2 + 7t + 4 = 0
212t^2 - 7t - 4 = 0
You can factorize the above equation and pick the positive time t since time can't be negative
Or
Since we have assumed that it's a perfect parabola,
Total time in air = (-b/2a) × 2
Time in air = 0.0165 × 2 = 0.033 s
I think that the correct answer is B
Hope that helps.
