The path of a softball thrown by maddie forms a parabola wirh the equation y=-3/2401(x-49)^2+8.5 how far does the ball travel vefore it again reaches the same height from which it was thrown

The distance travelled by ball is 98 units before it again reaches the same height from which it was thrown.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parabolic equation is

Where, h is height of ball after covering x distance horizontally.

Put x=0, to find initial height of the ball.

Put y=5.5 in the given equation and find the values of x at which the height of ball is 5.5.

Take square root both sides.

The height of ball is 5.5 at x=0 and x=98.

Therefore distance travelled by ball is 98 units before it again reaches the same height from which it was thrown.

$35.59 in pounds

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
