1 Notes: Word Problems for Quadratic Equations Name_____ The vertex of a Quadratic equation y = ax2 + bx + c Is located at = You throw a ball into the air from a height of 5 feet with an initial vertical velocity of 32 feet per second. Use the vertical motion model, h = -16t2 + vt + s where v is the initial velocity in feet/second and s is the height in feet, to calculate the maximum height of the ball. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary. You throw your ball into the air from a height of feet with an initial vertical velocity of 24 feet per second. Use the vertical motion model, h = -16t2 + vt + s, where v is the initial velocity in feet/second and s is the height in feet, to calculate the maximum height of the ball.

2 Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary. The solution root x-intercept zero of a Quadratic equation y = ax2 + bx + c = 0 Is located at = A person throws a shot put with an initial vertical velocity of 45 feet per second from a height of 6 feet. Use the vertical motion model, h = -16t2 + vt + s where v is the initial velocity in feet/second and s is the height in feet to calculate how long the shot put will be in the air for. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. A basketball player throws a basketball with an initial vertical velocity of 48 feet per second from a height of 5 feet. Use the vertical motion model, h = -16t2 + vt + s where v is the initial velocity in feet/second and s is the height in feet to calculate how long the basketball will be in the air for.
