Question

Anthony needed to complete some complex tricks in order to win the 17 and Under State Skate Boarding Championship in Orlando FL. In an attempt to complete a McTwist (a 540-degree burni performed on a cap) and to maximize his air time, Anthony rode his skateboard up a specially designed one of a kind ramp. Unfortunately, he did not make it to the other side of the ramp and crashed his skateboard. His height zoove the ground in feet is a function of his horizontal position from the top of the ramp, also measured in feet The function that relates his height to his distance is h(x)=-x²+2x+8. How far above the ground is the top of the ramp? F a b. How far away from the ramp was Anthony at his maximum height What is his maximum height? C. At his highest point, how high was he above the top of the ramp? d Whea bestemowlad het veled horizontal?​

Answer 1

did you get the answer yet I have the same question

Answer 2

Answer: a. 8 feet

the first question in part b is 1 and the second part is 9. ( or you could just put 1,9) c. 1 foot taller d. -2 and 4

Step-by-step explanation: you get answer A by looking at the C- value of the equation( in this case it’s 8)

you get the first answer to B by using the axis of symmetry formula -b/2(a) and that equals 1. You get the second answer to B by plugging in 1 into the equation..solve and get 9. So your answers in total should be (1,9)

For part C all you do is subtract the top of the ramp.. which is 8 from your vertex. in other words you do 9-8 and get 1 as your answer for C

Lastly, for D you use the quadratic formula ( or use photo math) and get answers -2 and 4.

If you’re also having problems on part E .. all you have to do is place a dot at point -2, place dot at point 4, place a dot at 8 on the Y AXIS, then place a dot at point (1,9) lastly, connect the dots with a line and the graph should look like an upside down U or V( whatever you think it looks like)

I hope this helped you guys!!
