Part A
The function y = -16x^2 + c represents the height of the ball at time x
We're told the building is 64 ft tall (roughly 6 stories), so c = 64
That means the function updates to y = -16x^2 + 64
The graph is shown below. Some points of interest on the graph are
- (0, 64) ... y intercept
- (0.5, 60)
- (1, 48)
- (1.5, 28)
- (2, 0) ... x intercept
Plot these points, and others if you wish, and draw a parabolic curve through them to complete the graph. To generate any (x,y) point, you simply plug in a given value for x to find its corresponding y value.
For example, if you plugged in say x = 1, then,
y = -16x^2 + 64
y = -16*1^2 + 64
y = -16 + 64
y = 48
Do the same for other x values to get the points mentioned earlier. The more points you plot, the more accurate the curve.
=========================================================
Part B
From the graph made in part A, we see that the parabola crosses the x axis at (2,0). This is the x intercept marked as point E in the diagram. This is when the ball hits the ground because y = 0, aka the height is 0.
The ball hits the ground at 2 seconds (ie the ball is in the air for 2 seconds).
There's not much in terms of steps or explanation here because much of that was already done.
Y ≥ -3x + 2
It will be good to draw a graph and read the solution from the graph
y = -3x + 2
for x = 0 → y = -3 · 0 + 2 = 2 → (0, 2)
for x = 2 → y = -3 · 2 + 2 = -6 + 2 = -4 → (2, -4)
Answer: A, C, E, F.
Answer:
i don't know but have a good day
Answer:
1 2/4 (1 1/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
keep, change, flip is how you solve these kinds of problems
the 3/4 stays the same
you turn the ÷ into x
and flip the 1/2 (2/1)
so it becomes
3/4x2/1= 1 2/4 (simplified is 1 1/2)
