Description

Problem 6

-What are the coordinates of the point (x,y)?

-Give the equation for the path of the ball, showing all work. Explain why you do each step.

-Include a screenshot of the graph of your equation (use Desmos.com), verifying that it goes through the given points.

Problem 10

-The total time T (in hours) of the trip as a function of the distance x (in miles). Make sure you show all your work to come up with this equation, and explain each step and what it represents.

-The domain of the function. Explain why this domain makes sense, and show work as needed.

-Graph the function using the graphing utility on Desmos.com. Take a screenshot and make sure it is included in your document. The graph should be focused over the domain of the function.

-Find the value of x that minimizes T. Desmos.com will note this ordered pair for you automatically. If it does not, then you can click various points of the graph and it will display the ordered pair.

-What does the ordered pair of the minimum for T represent in our situation? I.E. what does the value of x tell us, and what does the value of T tell us? Write a brief paragraph interpreting these values.

6. It is obvious that the strike point (𝑆) has the 𝑦-coordinate 8 (as the entire green wall has).
Because the starting point of the ball (𝐵) and the hole (𝐻) are at the same distance from
the green wall, the point where the ball strikes this wall must project to the midpoint of 𝐵𝐻,
2.5+9.5
which is (
, 2) = (6, 2).
2

This way 𝑆 = (𝟔, 𝟖).

The path of the ball consists of two straight segments, 𝐵𝑆 and 𝑆𝐻.
8−2

The slope for the line 𝐵𝑆 is 𝑚 = 6−2.5 = 3.5 = 35 =
opposite, −𝑚.

, the slope of the line 𝑆𝐻 is the

This way the equation of the line 𝐵𝑆 is
𝑦 = 2 ...
