Basically, divide 26.2 by 210 and you'll get the unit rate USE CACULATOR
Answer:
A. 4.5 ft
B. 4 ft
C. 1 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
If you pretend that h is replacing y and d is replacing x and you would graph the equation, then you would get a parabola that opens down.
You would need to find the vertex of the parabola. The ordered pairs would be (d, h) instead of the normal (x, y).
A. The maximum height will be the h value of the vertex
B. Let h = 0 and solve the equation for d. That will give you distance from the stump that the frog landed.
C. The distance from the log at the maximum height is the d value of the vertex
So, that is what is needed to be done.
Without me going thru all the work, the vertex is (1, 4.5) and the solutions to the equation when h = 0 are 4, -2 (discard -2 since a distance cannot be negative)
So the answer to A is 4.5 ft.
The answer to B is 4ft.
The answer to C is 1 ft.
Now, can you find the vertex on your own and can you solve the equation when h = 0? I hope so. OK?
