EASY GIVING BRAINLIEST JUST GRAPH TO FIND ANSWER While warming up for a game, two basketball players shoot balls in parabolic paths. The path of the first player's ball can be represented by the function g(x) = –2x2 + 13x + 7, where x represents the distance from the coach. The path of the second player's ball can be represented by the function h(x) = –x2 + 4x + 21.

Part A: Find the distances in which the two basketball paths will cross. Show all necessary calculations.

Answer:

  2 ft, 7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are interested in the values of x such that g(x) = h(x). These will be solutions of the difference g(x) -h(x) = 0. Hence the x-intercepts of a graph of g(x) -h(x) will be solutions to the problem.

__

The graph shows the difference between the paths will be zero at distances of 2 feet and 7 feet.
