The max/min is the highest point or the lowest point of the graph, from the graph we can conclude:


Max=(2,18)

The AOS ( Axis of symmetry) is the vertical line that divides the parabola into two congruent halves, in this case is given by:


x=2

The x-intercepts represent the initial time(where the rock is launched) and the final time (Where the rock reach the ground again) respectively.

The y-intercept represent the initial height of the rock

The vertex is the point where the parabola crosses its axis of symmetry, therefore:


V=(2,18)

What is the...

Domain:


D\approx\lbrack0,5\rbrack

Range:


R=\lbrack0,18\lbrack

How high will the rock be at 4 seconds?


\begin{gathered} x=4 \\ h=10 \end{gathered}

At what time will the rock reach its max height?




x=2s
