Answer:
2.2 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
38.5 ÷ 17.5 = 2.2
The flight is in the shape of a parabola with a vertex 5 feet above the water and 1/2 * 33 = 16.5 feet horizontally from the point of leaving the water
y = a(x - h)^2 + k
where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola and here it is (5 , 16.5), so we have the function:-
y = a(x - 16.5)^2 + 5
when x = 0 y = 0 so
0 = a(-16.5)^2 + 5
which gives a = -0.018365
So our function for the flight path is
y = -0.018365(x - 16.5)^2 + 5 Answer
The rule is -3, then +2
24-3 = 21
21 + 2 = 23
23-3= 20
20+2= 22
22-3= 19
19+2 = 21
21-3= 18
18+2 = 20
