Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The path covered by the volleyball will be a downward parabola with the vertex being the highest point of the ball.
A general form of a downward parabola is given as:
Where is the vertex of the parabola and 'a' is a constant.
Now, let 'h' be the vertical height and 't' be the time taken.
So, the equation would be of the form:
Now, as per question:
h = 2 seconds, k = 13 feet.
Now, taking a = 1. So, the formula that can be used is:
Step One: Find 25% of 48.
Step Two: Subtract that number from 48.
48 * 0.25 = 12
48 - 12 = 36
