Y=x^2-4x+8 and 4x+y=12 so y=12-4x, insert y in the quadratic to get
12-4x=x^2-4x+8
12=x^2+8
0=x^2-4=(x-2)(x+2)
So the solutions are x=2 and x=-2.
To find the maximum height you need to find the vertex:(h,k)
Your equation is in vertex form a(x-h)+k and the vertex is (h,k) where k is the maximum height and the h is the distance it went to reach the maximum height.
k=6 so the kangaroo's maximum height is 6 feet.
To find how long is the kangaroo's jump, take a look at the graph. You will notice that the parabola ends at the distance the kangaroo jumped. You will also see that it is the one of the x-intercepts.
-.03(x-14)^2+6=0
-.03(x-14)^2+6-6=0-6
-.03(x-14)^2=-6
-.03/-.03(x-14)=-6/-.03
(x-14)^2=200
[(x-14)^2]^.5=200^.5
x-14=(200)^.5
x-14+14=(200)^.5+14
x≈28.14 feet
The kangaroo jumped a distance of 28.14 feet.
You will notice that the square root of a number gives you two solutions a positive and a negative one. The other solution is -.14, which we know distance is not negative so we do not use that solution. Also, I used the ^.5 instead of using the square root. It is the same.
The answer two your problem is no remainder again because 46 divided by 2 equals 23
Convert 79% to a decimal which is .79
Then you multiply .79 by 32 which is 25.28
Your answer is 25.28
