70 feet.
If you're 30 feet from the base, then you have to climb that 30 feet, plus the 40 foot length of that building. (:
The graph of the function is a parabola.
The nose comes down as far as y=4 but no farther.
That happens when (x - 2)² = 0 , and THAT happens when x = 2 .
This is what my calculator says
Answer:
To find out the range, you check the minimum and maximum of the graph, and then check the y-component of these minimum and maximum.
You would get the minimum(-6, -6), and maximum(3, 4), get the y-component of these two points, you got the range: -6 to 4
Hope this helps!
