The heights the balls hit a fence at 350 ft distance are 65 feet, 38 feet and 30 feet, respectively
<h3>Represent the distance-height relationship for each player’s ball as an equation, in a table and on a graph. </h3><u>Juan</u>
Juan's equation is given as:
h = -0.001d^2 + 0.5d + 2.5
h =
Set d to multiples of 50 from 0 to 400.
So, the table of values of Juan's function is:
d (ft) h(ft)
0 2.5
50 25
100 42.5
150 55
200 62.5
250 65
300 62.5
350 65
400 42.5
See attachment for the graph of Juan's function
<u>Mark</u>
A quadratic function is represented as:
h = ad^2 + bd + c
Using the values on the table of values, we have:
c = 3 -- the constant value
So, the equation becomes
h = ad^2 + bd + 3
Using the two other values on the table of values, we have:
23 = a(50)^2 + b(50) + 3
38 = a(100)^2 + b(100) + 3
Using a graphing tool, we have:
a = -0.001
b = 0.45
So, Mark's equation is h(d) = -0.001d^2 + 0.45d + 3
See attachment for Mark's graph.
<u>Barry</u>
From the graph, we have the table of values of Barry's function to be:
d (ft) h(ft)
0 2.5
50 21
100 35
150 44
200 48
250 46
300 41
350 30
400 14
450 0
Using a graphing tool, we have the quadratic function to be:
y = -0.001x^2 +0.4x +2.5
<h3><u>The shortest and the greatest distance before hitting the ground</u></h3>From the graphs, equations and tables, the distance travelled by the balls are:
Juan = 505 feet
Mark = 457 feet
Barry = 450 feet
This means that Juan's ball would travel the greatest distance while Barry's ball would travel the shortest.
<h3>The height the balls hit a fence at 350 ft distance</h3>To do this, we set d = 350
From the graphs, equations and tables, the height at 350 ft by the balls are:
Juan = 65 feet
Mark = 38 feet
Barry = 30 feet
The above represents the height the balls hit the fence

Let's just choose "x" as our variable for the length of a side of the triangle.
Two sides of a triangle are equal in length and double the length of the shortest side.
A triangle has 3 sides. Make the smallest side x then the two equal sides that are double the smallest side are both equal to 2x
The perimeter of the triangle is 35 inches. Perimeter is the sum of all sides.
x + 2x + 2x = 35
5x = 35
x = 7
So the smallest side is 7, and the other two sides are 14.
