Belle, one of Mr. Minnich’s stars of track and field, throws an 8.8 Ib shot put, during a meet. When the shot put leaves her hand, its height is given by the quadratic function h(t) = -1617 + 141+ 6 and its horizontal distance is given by linear function d(1) = 221. a, (2 points) At what value of f does the shot put hit the ground?

One storm produces waves that can be described by the equation W, = 1.5sin (=) + 25 and the second storm’s waves are described by W = —1cos(#t) +15. As the waves reach the harbor, they merge into a single wave that can be described by a sine function. a.
