A football is thrown by a quarterback, the footballs height in feet h with respect to time in seconds T can be modeled using your quadratic function. You want to know when the football will be 7.5ft in the air because that's about the right height that your favorite football player would catch the ball. You also want to know if your most despised cornerback in the league will be able to interfere with the catch
After the football was thrown you noticed that it had a height of 7ft but 3 secs later it reached its peak height of 15ft
1)make a function to represent the height of the ball
2)then use that function to find out how long it would take for the football to reach 7.5ft
Assume that the cornerback was 100ft away from the destination of the ball when you 1st noticed the balls height the cornerback can run at a speed of 20ft per second will the cb have time to interfere with the catch if he's running directly towards the balls destination with the receiver
PLEASE EXPLAIN EVERYTHING IN WORDS WITH THE FORMULA IM REALLY CONFUSED
