40 is the answer =3 hope it works
Answer:
-1/4x² + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Path of sprinkler is modeled by the quadratic function :
w(x) = -1/4(x^2 -12 )
w(x) = height of the water, in meters, at position x
The height of ceiling as a constant or Coefficient = w(x)
Expanding w(x)
-1/4(x^2 -12 )
-1/4 * x² + 1/4 * 12
-1/4x² + 3
The height of ceiling is -1/4x² + 3
Set up a system of equations.
X+y=6
Y-x =40
Substitution method.
Y=6-x
(6-x)-x =40
6-2x=40
-2x=34
X= -17
Plug it back into the equation.
-17+y=6
Y=33
(-17,33) is one of the possible answers.
