The designer also programs a bird with a path that can be modeled by a quadratic function. The bird starts at the vertex of the path at (0, 20) and passes through the point (10, 8). What is the slope of the line that represents the turtle's path?

Answer: 0.8

Step-by-step explanation: i got it right on edg

second part to the question is

h= 0

k= 20

a= -0.12

third part is letter B

Answer:

-1.2

Explanation:

Given that the designer also programs a bird with a path that can be modeled by a quadratic function.

The bird starts at the vertex of the path at (0, 20) and passes through the point (10, 8).

If we treat this curve as line joining these two points then we can find the slope by the formula

Slope = change in y coordinate/change in x coordinate

Here the points given are

(0,20) and (10,8)


Change in y coordinate = 8-20 = -12\\Change in x coordinate = 10-0 = 10\\Slope = -1.2

Slope of the line that represents the turtle's path

=-1.2
