Select the correct answer from the drop-down menu. James is competing in the shot put event for his track team. His best attempt can be modeled using the quadratic function below, where x represents the horizontal distance, in feet, the shot traveled and h(x) represents the height, in feet, of the shot. h(x) = -0.05.12 + I +6 feet. It continues to increase until x= feet, and then In this situation, the height of the shot starts to increase when x = the height decreases until x= feet.​

Here is their argument. given the obtuse angle x, we make a quadrilateral abcd with ∠dab = x, and ∠abc = 90◦, and ad = bc. say the perpendicular bisector to dc meets the perpendicular bisector to ab at p. then pa = pb and pc = pd. so the triangles pad and pbc have equal sides and are congruent. thus ∠pad = ∠pbc. but pab is isosceles, hence ∠pab = ∠pba. subtracting, gives x = ∠pad−∠pab = ∠pbc −∠pba = 90◦. this is a preposterous conclusion – just where is the mistake in the "proof" and why does the argument break down there?

The spotter on the ground is standing beneath the safety net. what is his distance from the base of the platform, to the nearest meter? 3 meters, 2 meters, 4 meters, 1 meter?

What is the quadric regression equation that fits these data
