9 a) h t b) From the graph, the t-values go from t = 0 to approximately t = 9. Thus, the domain is. From the graph, the maximum value is approximately 106. Thus, the range is. c) It takes approximatley 9 s for the ball to hit the ground. PTS: 1 DIF: Easy OBJ: Section 4.1 NAT: RF 5 TOP: Graphical Solutions of Quadratic Equations KEY: x-intercepts zeros domain range 2. ANS: Draw a diagram to visualize the problem. width (w) Area (A) = 2170 square metres length (l) Perimeter (P) = 202 m

10 Thus, l = 70 or l = 31. The dimensions of the base are 70 m by 31 m. PTS: 1 DIF: Average OBJ: Section 4.2 NAT: RF 5 TOP: Factoring Quadratic Equations KEY: factor trinomial 3. ANS: Set d = 75 and solve for v. Use the quadratic formula: A negative speed does not make sense in this context. To stop within 75 m without skidding, the speed of the vehicle must be 95 km/h.
