A baseball is hit at a point 3 feet above the ground at a velocity of 100 feet per second and at an angle of 45 with respect to the ground. The path of the baseball is given by the function f (x) = –0.0032x2 + x + 3, where f (x) is the height of the baseball (in feet) and x is the horizontal distance from home plate (in feet). What is the maximum height reached by the baseball?

The Basic Characteristics of a Quadratic Function

Quadratics can be presented in the following forms:f(x) = ax2 + bx + cf(x) = a(x – h)2 + kf(x) = a(x – p)(x – q)

Basic Characteristics:•Shape of a quadratic is a ________________.•Opens up when __________ and down when __________.•Domain: ,Range:•Axis of symmetry is a __________ line going through the ___________.•The vertex is also a maximum or minimum of the function depending on if it opens up or down.•Find x-int by _____________ and y-int by _____________.

The Standard Form of a Quadratic Function

In Algebra II, we call this vertex form andStandard form is f(x) = ax2 + bx + c.

p.98 #67To make a sign holder, you bend a 100-inch long steel wire x inches from each end to form two right angles. To use the sign holder, you insert each end 6 inches into the ground.

a.) Write a function for the rectangular area A enclosed by the

sign holder in terms of x.

b.) Determine the value of x that maximizes the rectangular

area.
