The linear model represents the height, f(x), of a water balloon thrown off the roof of a building over time, x, measured in seconds: A linear model with ordered pairs at 0, 26 and 2, 34 and 4, 34 and 8, 30 and 10, 0 and 12, 0. The x axis is labeled Time in seconds, and the y axis is labeled Height in feet.

Part A: During what interval(s) of the domain is the water balloon's height increasing? (2 points)

Part B: During what interval(s) of the domain is the water balloon's height staying the same? (2 points)

Part C: During what interval(s) of the domain is the water balloon's height decreasing the fastest? Use complete sentences to support your answer. (3 points)

Part D: Use the constraints of the real-world situation to predict the height of the water balloon at 14 seconds. Use complete sentences to support your answer. (3 points)

Intersecting secant-tangent theorem states that if a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.so to break it down: 1. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p.sr = 21rp = 3x + 3pq = 4x + 4following to equation: tangent squared = the two segments multiplied by each otherso (4x + 4) ^ 2 = (3x + 3) • (21) simplifies to 16x^2 - 31x - 47 = 0 or (16x - 47)(x + 1) x = -1 or x = 47/162. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p (again! )sr = 16rp = xpq = 15(15) ^ 2 = 16 • x225 = 16xx = 225/163. the interesting chords are proportional to each other so a ratio is possible to set up: ap dp 10 3 + x = = —— = pc pb 8 xcross multiple to get 10x = (3 + x)(8)x = 12

Well if you have 20 bats you probably want 20 balls? you don’t have enough context to answer the question.
