Jamie kicked a soccer ball that traveled along a path described by the parabola y = -x2 +8x, where y equals the height of the soccer ball in feet, and x = the horizontal distance in feet that the ball has traveled from jamie. how many feet from jamie does the soccer ball hit the ground?

We are given the equation of parabola as:

Here y is height of soccer ball in feet and x is the horizontal distance in feet

Now when the ball will hit the ground , the height will become zero.

So plugging y as 0 in the given equation and solving for x , that will give us the distance traveled by soccer ball.

this is a quadratic equation, so finding gcf ,

GCF would be x here

now equating each part equal to zero,

we have either x=0 or -x+8=0

solving -x+8=0 we get x=8

as distance traveled cannot be zero so we say that x=8 is the answer

The Soccer Ball hit the ground 8 feet away from Jamie.

24+x=y

the most boring thing ever written

step-by-step explanation:

i am writing something. yes, i plan to make it the most boring thing ever written. i go to the store. a car is parked. many cars are parked or moving. some are blue. some are tan. they have windows. in the store, there are items for sale. these include such things as soap, detergent, magazines, and lettuce. you can enhance your life with these products. soap can be used for bathing, be it in a bathtub or in a shower. apply the soap to your body and rinse. detergent is used to wash clothes. place your dirty clothes into a washing machine and add some detergent as directed on the box. select the appropriate settings on your washing machine and you should be ready to begin. magazines are stapled reading material made with glossy paper, and they cover a wide variety of topics, ranging from news and politics to business and stock market information. some magazines are concerned with more recreational topics, like sports card collecting or different kinds of hairstyles. lettuce is a vegetable.
