    Study Notes

    Modeling Functions Overview

    • Functions that can be modeled with technology include cubic, absolute value, quadratic, and square root functions.

    Quadratic Function Applications

    • A dataset with values (1, 4), (2, 3), (3, 4), (4, 7) can be best modeled by a quadratic function.
    • A specific function derived from the dataset of points (-1, 0), (1, -4), (2, -3), (4, 5), (5, 12) is f(x) = (x-1)² - 4.

    Investment Model

    • Juan’s investment account modeled by c(x) = 7x² - 6x + 5 indicates his initial investment was $5,000.

    Data Modeling Examples

    • The point dataset (0, 1), (1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 4), (4, 1) is approximated by the model f(x) = - (x-2)² + 5.

    Free Falling Objects

    • The height of a free-falling object can be computed using h(t) = -12t² + 36t, with the object hitting the ground at 3 seconds.

    Soccer Ball Trajectory

    • The soccer ball modeled by h(t) = -8t² + 32t reaches its maximum height at 2 seconds.

    Maximum Height Calculation for Football

    • For a football kicked, the function h(x) = -3x² + 18x + 7 indicates the maximum height the ball will reach is 34 feet.
    • This football reaches its maximum height after 3 seconds.

    Key Time Points

    • Time to ground impact for the free falling object is 3 seconds.
    • Maximum height of the soccer ball occurs at 2 seconds, and the football’s peak is also at 3 seconds.
