Question

louis used a quadratic equation to model the height, y, of a falling object x seconds after it is dropped. which ordered pair generated by this model should be discarded because the values are unreasonable?
○ (-4, 1)
○ \\(\left(\frac{9}{4},24\
ight)\\)
○ \\(\left(5,\frac{3}{2}\
ight)\\)
○ (6, 0)

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The variable $x$ represents time in seconds after the object is dropped, so time cannot be a negative value. The first ordered pair has a negative $x$-value, which is impossible for this real-world scenario.

Answer:

A. $(-4, 1)$
