1. Mon Warm-Up The following table shows the amount of money in a state pension fund from 1995 to 2001. Assuming the data follows a linear model, find the model that represents the data. Then predict how much money will be in the fund in the year 2025. Finally, use your model to predict when the fund will have a zero balance.

2. Mon Warm-Up 1995$48.2 Billion 1996$46.7 Billion 1997$45.2 Billion 1998$43.7 Billion 1999$42.2 Billion 2000$40.7 Billion 2001$39.2 Billion

3. Mon Warm-Up Solution f(t) = - 1.5t + 3040.7 In 2025 the fund will have $3.2 Billion left The fund will run out of money sometime in 2028.

4. A Long Time Ago, On a Golf Course Far Away….

6. A golfer uses an 8 iron to hit his tee shot on a short par 3. A special strobe camera measures the height of the ball above the ground (assume the ground is level) for the first four seconds of its flight. Use the data below to find a linear function to model the height, y, of the golf ball after x seconds. 0 seconds0 feet 1 second94 feet

7. Use your function to find the height of the golf ball after 5 seconds, after 6 seconds and after 10 seconds.

8. After 5 seconds the ball is 470 feet high After 6 seconds the ball is 564 feet high After 10 seconds, the ball is 940 feet high Do these answers make sense?

9. Should we use this equation to model our data?

10. The following shows the ACTUAL height of the golf ball after x seconds. 0 seconds0 feet6 seconds84 feet 1 second94 feet6.5 seconds 39 feet 2 seconds156 feet6.6 seconds 29.04 ft 3 seconds 186 feet6.7 sec.18.76 ft 4 seconds184 feet6.8 sec.8.16 ft 5 seconds150 feet6.875 sec. 0 feet

11. This is what the graph of the function would look like if we plotted time as the independent, x, variable and height as the dependent, y, variable.

13. The figure graphed is called a parabola. The type of function that, when graphed, forms a parabola is called a Quadratic Function. All quadratic functions can be written in the form: Since a quadratic equation does not form a straight line, there is NO constant slope

14. Since our data more closely resembles a quadratic rather than a linear function, we would use the QUADRATIC REGRESSION model to find the function that best represents the data. Here is how we can come up with our Quadratic function

15. Let t represent the number of seconds that the ball is in the air, and h(t) will represent the height of the ball after t seconds. We will use the following 3 ordered pairs from our data.

16. So now we know that

27. This particular problem can be represented by the following quadratic function:

29. Warm Up A golfer is teeing off from a tee box that is 35 feet above the green.. One second after he tees off, the ball is 128 feet above the green and three seconds AFTER THAT, the ball is 23 feet above the green. Find the quadratic function that models the height of the golf ball above the green, as a function of time, t. How high above the green was the ball at the 2 second mark? At the 3 second mark? At the 5 second mark?

30. Warm Up Answer A golfer is teeing off from a tee box that is 35 feet above the green.. One second after he tees off, the ball is 128 feet above the green and three seconds AFTER THAT, the ball is 23 feet above the green. Find the quadratic function that models the height of the golf ball above the green, as a function of time, t. How high above the green was the ball at the 2 second mark? 157 ft. At the 3 second mark? 122 ft. At the 5 second mark? -140 ft.

31. Homework Answers Find the quadratic function that models each set of data

32. Use the graph to estimate: The maximum height of the golf ball, and The golf ball’s time of flight

33. We can calculate the ACTUAL maximum height. Remember from Algebra II, the x value at the vertex of a parabola is: Therefore, the maximum height reached by the golf ball is:

35. Therefore, the golf ball reached a maximum height of about 189 feet which occurred 3.44 seconds after it was struck.

36. Now, how do we find the total flight time of the ball?

37. Since parabola’s are symmetric, the time required to reach maximum height will be the same as the time required to return back to the ground.

38. Since it took 3.4375 seconds to go up, it stands to reason that it will take and additional 3.4375 seconds to come back down. Therefore, the total time of flight will be 3.4375 x 2 or 6.875 seconds
