Juan was practicing his hitting while talking to the girls standing around watching. He started telling them how he hit the ball over the 50 foot light tower yesterday. The girls were unsure that he really did that. The formula for this hit is: h(x)-16x2+60x+4 where h is the height of the ball and x is the number of seconds the ball is in the air. A. How can Juan provide proof to the girls that he actually hit the ball over the tower? B. How high did Juan actually hit the ball
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
