ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

for max height you need to find the vertex right ?

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

I have used my calc, giving me (6.25, 7.13), but apparantly this wants 3 decimal places

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

@ganeshie8 I am not sure.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

try 7.125

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

sure.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

for #2, try 15.687

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

THANK YOU, how did you do that?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

for #1, just find the vertex of parabols. cuz max value occurs at vertex :- http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=vertex+-32%2F%2820%29%5E2x%5E2%2Bx%2B4

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

Thanks

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

for #2, find x intercepts, cuz when it hits the ground, y value = 0 http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=+-32%2F%2820%29%5E2x%5E2%2Bx%2B4+%3D+0

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):
