A. Projectile Motion
A child throws a ball upward from the roof of a house. The trajectory is parabolic, according to the laws of
physics. The height of the ball above the ground, h(x) (in meters) is given by the quadratic function:
h(x) = -3x2 + 6x + 4
where x is the horizontal distance from the house in meters. The goal of this tutorial is to graph this
function and analyze and interpret the graph within the problem context.
Show the following steps on the blackboard or paper as your instructor directs:
a) State the coordinates of the h-intercept. Explain the meaning of this intercept within the problem context.
b) Complete the square on the right-hand side to convert the function from general form to standard form.
State the coordinates of the vertex.
c) Find vertex by using the vertex formula. The result should be the same as in part b) above.

- Ticket Prices The price of one airline ticket is
$250. For each additional ticket sold to a group, the
price of every ticket is reduced by $2. For example,
2 tickets cost 2. 248 = $496 and 3 tickets cost
3. 246 = 5738.
(a) Write a quadratic function that gives the total
cost of buying x tickets.
(b) What is the cost of 5 tickets?
(c) How many tickets were sold if the cost is $5200?
(d) What number of tickets sold gives the greatest
total cost?

- Height of a basketball The path of a basketball thrown from the free throw line can be modeled by the quadratic function f(x)=0.06x2+1.5x+6, where x is the horizontal distance in feet from the free throw line and f(x) is the height in feet of the ball. Find the maximum height of the basketball.arrow_forwardWriting an Equation The graph of a fourth-degree polynomial function y=fx is shown. The equation has 2i as zeros. Write an equation for f.arrow_forwardHeight of a football A football is thrown by a quarterback from the 10-yard line and caught by the wide receiver on the 50-yard line. The footballs path on this interval can be modeled by the quadratic function f(x)=120x2+3x19, where x is the horizontal distance in yards from the goal line and f(x) is the height of the football in feet. Find the maximum height reached by the football.arrow_forward
