A soccer ball is kicked 48 yards and reaches a maximum height of 30 yards. Write the equation of the parabola that describes its path. Leave the vertical stretch factor in exact form

Respuesta :

We know that

• The ball is kicked 48 yards.

,

• Its maximum height is 30 yards.

These two numbers defined vertex (48, 30). We use the vertex form

[tex]y=-(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

Replacing the vertex, we have

[tex]y=-(x-48)^2+30[/tex]

The graph below shows the function.

Therefore, the equation is

[tex]y=-(x-48)^2+30[/tex]
