Algebra.Com's Answer #715328 by Boreal(15235)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! This is y=-(2/9)(x^2-6x) \n" ); document.write( "or y=-(2/9)x+(12/9)x \n" ); document.write( "the x value for the vertex (highest point) is -b/2a or -(12/9)/-(4/9), which is 3 feet. y(3)=-(2/9)(-9)=2 feet ANSWER \n" ); document.write( "The vertex is symmetrical, so if the starting point is 0 feet, the ending point is 6 feet. ANSWER \n" ); document.write( "OR y=(-2/9)(x)(x-6)=0 \n" ); document.write( "x=0 and 6. \n" ); document.write( " |
