samuel bounced a bouncy ball. part of the ball's path, including its highest point, is
described by the function below, where f(x) is the height of the ball in inches. according
to the function, what is the ball's maximum height, in inches? (use only the digits 0-9 to
enter the height.)
f(x) = -x2 + 12x

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we need to estimated quotient of -23.514 and -3.98.

We need to use the division to find the answer.

Before going to the division, we need to estimate the dividend -23.514 and the divisor -3.98 to nearest integer.

-23.514, here the tenths place digit is 5, since it is greater than or equal to 5, we can 1 in the unit place and round off.

So, -23.514 = -24

-3.98, here the tenths place digit is 9 which is greater than or equal to 5, so we add 1 in the unit place and estimate.

So, -3.98 = -4

Now we have to divide -24 by -4.

Remember, when divide a negative by a negative number, the answer will be in positive. This is a division sign rule.
