The moral of the story is to not give up. The bird ,after discovering he couldn’t get the water after trying his hardest, still pushed through to pick up the stones to tip the pitcher to get the water.
Q: You are shot out of a cannon at the fair. The equation y=-1/5 * (x+2) (x-28) models your flight path, where y is the height above the ground and x is the horizontal distance. Which of the following statements in the comments are true?
a) You reach a maximum height of 45 feet,
b) You will land 11.2 feet from the cannon,
c) The barrel of the cannon is about 11 feet above the ground.
d)At a point 13 feet from the cannon, you begin to descend.
A: When y = 0, x = 28
y’ = 0 at x = 13 where Y is max = 15^2 / 5 = 45
Hence a is true, b is false, c is false, d is false .
The 3 is in the ones place because it is on one right of the decimal point.
Y-(y value of P)=-1/m(X-(X value of P))
