Chapter 9, Problem 7

(choose chapter or problem)

The path of a ball in flight is given by p(x) = 0.23(x 3.4)2 + 4.2, where x is the horizontal distance in meters and p(x) is the vertical height in meters. Note that in this case the graph is the path of the ball, not the graph of the balls height over time.a. Find p(2) and give a real-world meaning for this value. b. Find the x-values for p(x) = 2, and describe their real-world meanings. c. How high is the ball when it is released? d. How far will the ball travel horizontally before it hits the ground?
