Answer:
(0, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex is halfway between the directrix and the focus. The vertex is at (0, 0) and the directrix is a (0, 3). There are 3 units between them, so that means that the focus is 3 units the other way at (0, -3).
(4,-2) is located in Quadrant IV
5/8 inches should be the correct answer. Hope this helps!
When the object reaches the ground, the height is zero, so:
0 = 144 - 16t^2
then you just solve for t, so subtract the 144 over
-144 = -16t^2
then divide by the -16
9 = t^2
then take the square root of both sides
3 = t
therefore, it will take three seconds for the object to reach the ground.
