Question

A Labrador leaps over a hurdle. The function f(t) represents the height of the Labrador above the ground, in inches, at t seconds:

\[f(t) = -16t^2 + 26t\]

A foxhound jumps over the same hurdle. The table shows the height of the foxhound above the ground g(t), in inches, at t seconds:

Time (t) g(t)
0 0
0.4 5.44
0.6 6.24
0.7 6.16
0.8 5.76
1.0 4
1.2 0


Compare and interpret the maximum of f(t) and g(t).

Answer 1

this is music, dude. anyhow do you see the maximum of g()?

Answer 2

g(t)*

Answer 3

Music?

6.24? When the time is 0.6 seconds?

Answer 4

Go to math

Answer 5

rofl what is happening to this site aaaa http://puu.sh/eu7CR.png
correct. now to find the max of f(t), we look at the vertex, I believe

Answer 6

I found the max of f(t), its 13/16

Answer 7

26/32 or 13/16 lemme just wolfram it

Answer 8

Which is 0.8125

Answer 9

26/32 = 13/16

Answer 10

we can plug that in to find the time
wolfram says it's at (0.8125, 10.5625)

Answer 11

Two maximums?

Answer 12

no this is the labradors maximum

Answer 13

Oh, lol, sorry, blonde moment

Answer 14

0.1825 is 13/16
don't worry :p

Answer 15

*0.8125

Answer 16

omg

Answer 17

:(

Answer 18

Was kidding cx

Answer 19

anyhow, I guess interpreting this = the Labrador max is at 0.8125 // 10.blah bloah
the other thing is at 0.6 // 6.24'

that means the labrador reaches its max later, and jumps 4 inches higher

Answer 20

So, the labrador jumped higher than the fox

Answer 21

I know rofl

Answer 22

Seem Legit, lmbo cx

Answer 23

yeah, and it also took longer to reach its maximum

Answer 24
