DRAWING CONCLUSIONS "Hang time" is the time you are suspended in the air during a jump. Your hang time t (in seconds) is given by the function t = 0.5h , where h is the height (in feet) of the jump. Suppose a kangaroo and a snowboarder jump with the hang times shown. a. Find the heights that the snowboarder and the kangaroo jump. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

The snowboarder jumps about___ I feet and the kangaroo jumps about___feet.

b. Double the hang times of the snowboarder and the kangaroo and calculate the corresponding heights of the each jump. Round your answer to the nearest

tenth.

The snowboarder jumps about___ feet and the kangaroo jumps about___feet.

c. When the hang time doubles, does the height of the jump double? Explain.

___, because when the hang time doubles, the height___by a factor of___.
