Q:

the vertex is located at 8.33,236.67. What does this point represent in context

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:It depends on the situation being modeled.Assuming the vertex (8.33,236.67) is on a quadratic curve modeling height of an object in feet aer t seconds.Then t=8.33s is the time the object reached the maximum height.The maximum height is the y-value of the vertex, which is 236.67 feet.In this case the quadratic curve opens downwards.The vertex is then the maximum point on this curve.
