The height y, in feet, of a football x seconds after it is thrown is modeled by the equation y = â€"16x2 24x 1. What information does the zero of the equation 6 = â€"16x2 24x 1 represent?.

Respuesta :

The zero of the equation [tex]6 = -16x^2 + 24x + 1[/tex] represents the moment when the ball is 6 ft above the ground.

Given that,

The height y, in feet, of a football x seconds, after it is thrown is modeled by the equation,

[tex]\rm y = -16x^2 + 24x + 1.[/tex]

We have to determine,

What information does the zero of the equation [tex]6 = -16x^2 + 24x + 1[/tex] represent?

According to the question,

In the quadratic equation for the ball's height, it is found that the zero of the equation represents,

[tex]\rm 6 = -16x^2 + 24x + 1[/tex]

The instant of the time x is when the ball is 6 ft above the ground.

The height of the ball is y(x), after x seconds, is modeled by:

[tex]\rm y = -16x^2 + 24x + 1.[/tex]

The equation given is,

[tex]\rm 6 = -16x^2 + 24x + 1[/tex]

In which the height is 6 feet above the ground, and the zeroes are the instants of time when the ball is 6 ft above the ground.

Hence, These points represent the moment when the ball is 6 ft above the ground.
