Ace and Bob were throwing javelins at the start. Bob said that he can throw the javelin the furthest distance if he throws it as high as he can. Ace says that he can throw the javelin the furthest if he has less of an arc than Bob. Their data is the graph on the left.
1

Who threw their javelin the furthest from the start?

1

Who threw their javelin the highest?

1

At what distance from the start were the two javelins the same height above the ground?

1

What is the highest the red javelin was thrown above the ground?

1

At what time did the red javelin have a heigh of 30 meters above ground?

1

How high above the ground was the green javelin when it was 1 meter away from the start?

1

How high above the ground was the red javelin when it was 7 meters away from the start?

Helga the Dolphin is swimming in her natural habitat. A group of marine biologists are recording the height dolphins can reach when jumping out of water in relation to how much time they spend out of water in the jump. The left is the data that represents this.
1

How much total time did the dolphin spend out of water in this particular jump?

1

What was the highest the dolphin jumped above water?

1

How long was the dolphin out of water when she reached her largest height above water?

1

How high above the water was the dolphin 2 seconds after jumping out the water?

1

How high was the dolphin after 0.5 seconds from jumping out the water?
