Every year in delaware there is a contest where people create cannons and catapults designed to launch pumpkins as far in the air as possible. the equation y=10+95x-16x^2 can be used to represent the height, y, of a launched pumpkin, where x is the time in seconds that the pumpkin has been in the air. what is the maximum height that the pumpkin reaches? how many seconds have passed when the pumpkin hits the ground? (hint if the pumpkin hits the ground, its height is 0

max 151.02

after 6.04

Step-by-step explanation:

answer-

a. the total cost of a taxi ride includes an initial charge of approximately $3.30

solution-

in the graph,

x axis represents the distance traveled and

y axis represents the total fare

the best fit line intersects the y axis approximately at 3.30 or y-intercept is 3.30. at x=0, i.e when the taxi is still, the value of y or the cost of the fare is 3.30. that means $3.30 is the fixed charge which will be levied along with the other fare.

the slope of the line represent the cost per mile. as the best fit line is straight line, so the price per mile is constant.
