Answer:

3 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

It's quite simple. First, add 5cm to the progress of the insect, counting it as 1 second. Then subtract 2cm because it falls over the next second, thus taking another second. Then finally, plus 5cm, making it 3 seconds. It's not 4 seconds because at 3 seconds it had already reached the top.

If I didn't clear everything or messed up, please comment.

Which the parabola opens,
Dmitrij [34]

Table (A) represents the parabola y = x² - 6x in which the parabola opens and the y-intercept is (0, 0) table (A) is the correct choice.

<h3>What is a parabola?</h3>

It is defined as the graph of a quadratic function that has something bowl-shaped.

We have the tables shown in the picture.

We know the quadratic form of a parabola is:

y = ax² + bx + c

If a > 0 the parabola opens

In the equation:

y = x² - 6x

1 > 0 the parabola opens and y-intercept is:

y = 0 (plug x = 0 in the given equation)

a = 1, b = -6, and c = 0

Thus, table (A) represents the parabola y = x² - 6x in which the parabola opens and the y-intercept is (0, 0) table (A) is the correct choice.
