Answer:

  maximum height of 17.07 feet about 10.67 feet from the club

  returns to the ground 21.33 feet away

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing calculator can answer these questions easily.

The vertex of the quadratic ax²+bx+c is given by x=-b/(2a). For this quadratic function, the highest point is found at ...

  x = -(3.2)/(2(-0.15)) = 32/3 = 10 2/3 . . . . feet horizontally from the club

The maximum height is the function value at that point.

  h(10 2/3) = (-0.15(10 2/3) +3.2)(10 2/3) = 1.6(10 2/3) = 17 1/15

The ball reaches a maximum height of 17 1/15 feet at a horizontal distance of 10 2/3 feet from the club. The ball's flight is symmetrical about the peak, so it returns to the ground about 21 1/3 feet away.

If M is the set of all square numbers less than 80 and N is the set of all non-negative even numbers that are under 30, Write th
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

All square numbers are numbers formed by squaring a single number. If M is the set of all square numbers less than 80, then

M = (4, 9, 16, 25, 49, 64)

Even numbers are numbers that are divisible by 2 without remainder.

If N is the set of all non-negative even numbers that are under 30, then

N = (2, 4, 6, 8 ,10, 12, 14, 16,18,20, 22, 24, 26,28)

It will not include 30 because we want even numbers under 30

Solve for x and y. What is m
irina [24]
3x + 2y + y - 3x = 180

3y = 180

y = 180/3

y = 60

3x = y - 3x

Let y = 60

3x = 60 - 3x

3x + 3x = 60

6x = 60

x = 60/6

x = 10

Answer: x = 10, y = 60
