A ball is thrown straight up from a height of 3 ft with a speed of 32 ft/s. Its height above the ground after x seconds is given by the quadratic function y = -16x2 + 32x + 3. Explain the steps you would use to determine the path of the ball in terms of a transformation of the graph of y = x2.

sorry, i don't know i just need points, i'm new here. chao

(1, –1), (16, –4), (36, –6)

step-by-step explanation:

given that the function is

this can also be written as

we have to graph this function and check which list of points lie on the graph

see attachment for graph:

we find that the points lying are (1,-1) (16,-4) and (36,-6)

since square root is there we find that x can only be posiitve but y can be since square root both positive and negative.

x = 12

y = 1

for the points!
