The horizontal distance from the firefighter at which the maximum height of water occurs is 10.83m
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
h(x) = -0.026x² + 0.563x + 3
where,
h(x) is the height of the water
Initial speed, u = 14m/s
angle, θ = 30°
(a)
Horizontal distance = ?
h(x) = ax² + bx + c
the vertex is found at x = -b/2a
where,
x = distance to the maximum height
As compared to the equation given:
a = -0.026
b = 0.563
Thus,
Therefore, horizontal distance from the firefighter at which the maximum height of water occurs is 10.83m
+ y = -1 ⇒ y =
- 1
To graph this line, plot a point at the y-intercept (0, -1), than plot the next point using the rise over run from the slope by counting up 1 and to the right 3 of the y-intercept. This gives you a second point of (3. 0). Draw a line through those two coordinates.
Answer: Plot (0, -1) and (3, 0) and draw a line through them.

y = 4 + ⇒ y =
+ 4
Same as above. Plot the y-intercept (0, 4) and then use rise over run from the slope to plot (3, 5).
Answer: Plot (0, 4) and (3, 5) and draw a line through them.

You should end up with two PARALLEL lines. Since the lines never intersect, there are no solutions to this system of equations.
Answer: No Solution
