A basketball player shoots a basketball that reaches a height above 15 feet before landing back on the ground exactly after 7 seconds. Consider the following representations. I. -(x - 3)2 + 16 II. -x2 + 8x - 7 III. -(x - 3)2 + 14 IV. -x2 + 6x + 7 Which of the representations are CORRECT for this scenario?

I and IV

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the height of the basketball reaches above 15 feet, hence the maximum of the function should be greater than 15 feet. Also at 7 seconds, the ball is on the ground, hence f(7) = 0 feet

The maximum of a function is at x = -b/2a

i) f(x) = -(x-3)² + 16 = -(x² - 6x + 9) + 16 = -x² + 6x + 7

The maximum of a function is at x = -b/2a = -6 / 2(-1) = 3

f(3) = -(3-3)² + 16 = 16 > 15

Also f(7) = - (7 - 3)² + 16 = 0

Hence this option is correct

ii) f(x) = -x² + 8x - 7

The maximum of a function is at x = -b/2a = -8 / 2(-1) = 4

f(4) = -4² + 8(4) - 7 = 9 < 15   not correct

Also f(7) = - 7² + 8(7) - 7 = 0

Hence this option is not correct since the maximum f(4) = 9 < 15  

iii)  f(x) = -(x-3)² + 14 = -(x² - 6x + 9) + 14 = -x² + 6x + 5

The maximum of a function is at x = -b/2a = -6 / 2(-1) = 3

f(3) = -(3-3)² + 14 = 14 < 15

Also f(7) = - (7 - 3)² + 14 = -2

Hence this option is not correct since the maximum f(4) = 9 < 15 and f(7) ≠ 0

iv)f(x)  = -x² + 6x + 7

The maximum of a function is at x = -b/2a = -6 / 2(-1) = 3

f(3) = -(3)² + 6(3) + 7 = 16 > 15

Also f(7) = - (7)² + 6(7) + 7 = 0

Hence this option is correct

just take the area of the square and then the area of the circle then subtract the circle area from the squares area

step-by-step explanation:

hi there!

step-by-step explanation:

a roof pitch is basically for every inch rise there is 12 inches run.

the height of the roof is also known as the rafter.

formula: rafter^2 = rise^2 + run^2

rafter^2 = 5^2 + 12^2

rafter^2 = 25 + 144

rafter ^2 = 169"^2

the height of the roof from the lowest point to the highest point is 169"^2.

hope this : )
