PLZ HELP WILL GIVE 50 POINTS - QUADRATIC APPLICATIONS

Mathematics
1 answer:
Contact [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The bird will be at a ground distance of 10.04 units away.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c

It's vertex is the point (x_{v}, y_{v})

In which

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}

y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}

Where

\Delta = b^2-4ac

If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at x_{v}, and it's value is y_{v}.

Equation for the height:

The height of the bird after x seconds is given by:

h(x) = -0.114x^2 + 2.29x + 3.5

Which is a quadratic equation with a = -0.114, b = 2.29, c = 3.5.

When the bird is at its highest?

Quadratic equation with a < 0, and thus, at the vertex. The ground distance is the x-value of the vertex. Thus

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{2.29}{2(-0.114)} = 10.04

The bird will be at a ground distance of 10.04 units away.
