What is the maximum height of the football if the football’s path can be modeled by the function
The maximum height of the football if the football’s path can be modeled by the function
Axis of symmetry (x)
Vertex
Given:
The given function
Concept Used:
- The vertex is the highest point if the parabola opens downward and the lowest point if the parabola opens upward.
- The axis of symmetry is the line that cuts the parabola into 2 matching halves and the vertex lies on the axis of symmetry.
Calculation:
The graph of the given function
The given function
Here
Axis of symmetry (x)
So Axis of symmetry (x)
Vertex
Vertex
Vertex
So, the maximum height of the football if the football’s path can be modeled by the function
