QUESTION -

William is competing in the shot put event at a track meet. The quadratic expression that models the vertical height of the shot from the ground, in feet, over the horizontal distance traveled, in feet, x, is given below.

What do the zeros of the expression represent?

A. the maximum height of the shot

B. the time it takes for the shot to reach the ground

C. the horizontal distance covered by the shot

D. the initial height from which the shot was thrown Reset

ANSWER -

I'm pretty sure the answer is A. the maximum height of the shotplease correct me if i'm wrong.

Hope i helped have a wonderful day

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic expression is -2 x ^2 + 3 x + 5.

I used an algebraic problem solver to get an explanation of what the zeros are in a quadratic equation.

The zeros represent the maximum height of the shot.

one set of data has more variation than the other. hope this !

given : the shape of his satellite can be modeled by   where x and y are modeled in inches.

now,the given equation   is a equation of parabola.

here, coefficient of x is positive, hence the parabola opens rightwards.

on comparing this equation with standard equation , we get

in standard equation, coordinates of focus=(0,m)

thus for given equation coordinates of focus=(0,1.5)
