Practical ApplicationsPractical ApplicationsThe flight path of a firework is

modelled by the relation h = -5(t-5)2 + 127, where h is the height, in metres, of the firework above the ground and t is the time, in seconds, since the firework was fired.

Practical ApplicationsPractical ApplicationsA) what is the maximum height

reached by the firework? How many seconds after it was fired does the firework reach this height?

Looking for the vertex point◦ Maximum height y coordinate (k)◦ Seconds after fired x coordinate (h)

k = 127h = 5

Practical ApplicationsPractical ApplicationsB) How high was the firework above

the ground when it was fired?Looking for the y-intercept (firework

was fired at t=0)Sub in t=0h = -5(0-5)2 + 127h = -5(-5)2 + 127h = -5(25)+127h = -125+127h = 2 m

TOCTOCState the vertex and axis of

symmetry for the following equation:

y = (x+2)2 + 4
