The graph shows the parabolic surface of a skateboard ramp, where y is the height (in inches) and x is the horizontal distance (in inches). A spotlight is focused at a point on the ramp, represented by the linear function. How high is the spotlight focused on the ramp? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

  y= -3x is the required function.

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given a table:

x             y

0             0

1             -3

3             -9

-2             6

we can see that the values of y is -3 times the value of x

hence, the function would be: y= -3x.

put the values of x will give the same y as in the table that means function is satisfying the given table.

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
