Chapter 2.1.2 Rebound Ratios
Algebra Review: • Find the POI. f(x) = 1.5x2- 9x + 11.5 g(x) = -0.2x2- 0.4x + 2.8
Find the missing terms and write a rule for each exponential function.
How High Will It Bounce? • Many games depend on how a ball bounces. For example, if different basketballs rebound differently, one basketball would bounce differently off of a backboard than another would, and this could cause basketball players to miss their shots. For this reason, manufacturers have to make balls’ bounciness conform to specific standard. • Listed on the next slides are the “bounciness” standards for different kinds of balls.
2-20 continued • Tennis Balls: Must Rebound approximately 111 cm when dropped from 200 cm. What is the rebounding ratio? • Soccer balls: Must rebound approximately 120 cm when dropped from 200cm onto a steel plate. What is the rebounding ratio?
NOW DETERMINE THE REBOUNDING RATIO FOR THE FOLLOWING BALLS. Basketballs: Must rebound approximately 53.5 inches when dropped from 72 inches onto a wooden floor. Squash Balls: Must rebound approximately 29.5 inches when dropped from 100 inches onto a steel plate at 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
