Questions
1. What does the height of the sign from the bottom of the M to the top represent?
It represents the dependent variable, and the maximum height the M can reach.
2. At the spot where the M reaches the bottom of the sign,what is the relevance to the equation?
The spot where the M reaches the bottom of the sign represents the roots, where the parabola intersects with the x-axis.
3. What is the maximum of the M?
4.04ft
4. How far away is the middle of the M when the right side of the M reaches it's maximum height?
0 ft
5. What is the domain related to the distance from the middle of the M to the far right side of the M?
(-1.31 to 1.34)
6. What is the range related to the height of the bottom of the M to the top?
(0 to 4.04)
