A fireboat in the harbor is helping put out a fire in a
warehouse on the pier. The distance from the barrel
(end) of the water cannon to the roof of the
warehouse is 120 feet, and the water shoots up 50
feet above the barrel of the water cannon.
Sketch a graph and write an equation of the
parabola that models the path of the water from the
fireboat to the fire. State an appropriate domain
and range for this situation. 2-18 HW e Tool
