Use the following equation, where x and y are measured in meters,
to model a cross section of the Barrenger Meteor crater,
near Winslow, Arizona.
:
Barringer meteor crater model: y =(x-600)(x+600)
:
what is the depth of the crater?
:
y =
:
y = -
:
y =
:
difference of squares so axis of symmetry is 0 and the minimum = -200
:
Like this
:
Crater is 1200 ft wide and 200 ft deep
