Questions and Answers

What are some real-life situations where the application of quadratics is commonly used?

Some examples include analyzing the trajectory of a projectile, modeling the motion of a swinging pendulum, and predicting the growth of populations or the decay of radioactive substances.

How can quadratics be used to analyze the trajectory of a projectile?

By using the equation of motion, which is a quadratic equation, one can determine the maximum height, range, and time of flight of a projectile.

In what ways can quadratics be used to model the growth or decay of populations or substances?

Quadratic equations can be used to model the growth or decay of populations by considering factors such as birth rate, death rate, and immigration. They can also be used to model the decay of radioactive substances by considering the half-life of the substance.
