<p>The predicted flight path of a toy rocket is defined by the relation <code class='latex inline'>h = -2(d -3)[d -15)</code>, where d is the horizontal distance, in metres, from a safety wall, and h is the height, in metres, above the ground.</p> <ul> <li>What is the maximum height of the rocket, and how far, horizontally. is it from the wall at that moment?</li> </ul>
<p>A rock is thrown straight up in the air from an initial height <code class='latex inline'>h_0</code>, in metres, with the initial velocity <code class='latex inline'>v_0</code>, in metres per second. The height in metres above the ground after <code class='latex inline'>t</code> seconds is given by <code class='latex inline'>h(t) = -4.9t^2 + v_{0}t + h_0</code>. Find an expression for the time is takes the rock to reach its maximum height.</p>
<p>The length and width of a rectangle are represented by <code class='latex inline'>x+2</code> and <code class='latex inline'>9-4x</code>. If <code class='latex inline'>x</code> must be an integer, what are the possible values for the area of the rectangle?</p>
<p>Last year, a banquet hall charged $<code class='latex inline'>40</code> per person, and <code class='latex inline'>60</code> people attended the hockey banquet dinner. This year, the hall&#39;s manager has said that forever <code class='latex inline'>10</code> extra people that attend the banquet, they will decrease the price by$<code class='latex inline'>1.50</code> per person. What size group would maximize the profit for the hall this year?</p>
