A basketball player stands near the middle of the court and throws the ball toward the basket. The path of the ball is a parabola. The ball leaves the player's hands at a height of 6 feet above the ground. The ball travels to a maximum height of 24 feet when it is a horizontal distance of 12 feet from the player. Write a function to represent the height of the ball, h(x), in terms of distance, x, from the player. The basket hoop is 10 feet high and 20 feet from the player. Will the ball make it into the basket? Show your work that leads you to your answer.

The table below represents the displacement of a fish from its reef as a function of time: time (hours) x displacement from reef (feet) y 0 4 1 64 2 124 3 184 4 244 part a: what is the y-intercept of the function, and what does this tell you about the fish? (4 points) part b: calculate the average rate of change of the function represented by the table between x = 1 to x = 3 hours, and tell what the average rate represents. (4 points) part c: what would be the domain of the function if the fish continued to swim at this rate until it traveled 724 feet from the reef? (2 points)
