Step-by-step explanation

For the given question, we have the following


\begin{gathered} x=135t \\ y=3.3+38t-16t^2 \end{gathered}

Part A

find the ordered pairs (x,)


\begin{gathered} when \\ t=0.2 \\ \\ x=135(0.2)=27 \\ y=3.3+38(0.2)-16(0.2)^2=10.26 \\ \\ when\text{ t=0.2} \\ (x,y)=(27,10.26) \\ \end{gathered}


\begin{gathered} when \\ t=1.2 \\ x=135(1.2)=162 \\ y=3.3+38(1.2)−16(1.2)^2=25.86 \\ \\ (x,y)=(162,25.86) \end{gathered}


\begin{gathered} when \\ t=2.2 \\ x=135(2.2)=297 \\ y=3.3+38(2.2)−16(2.2)^2=9.46 \\ \\ (x,y)=(297,9.46) \end{gathered}
