Find the slope between the given points:

(-3, 4) and (5, -6)

• 4/5

• 5/4

• -4/5

• -5/4

Select the equation that contains these two points:

(-1, -5) and (1, 3)

• y = 4x - 1

• y = 4x + 1

• y = (1/4)x - 1

A student launches a homemade rocket from the roof of his house. The trajectory of the rocket is represented by the function h = -0.5t^2 + 8t + 10, where h equals the height of the rocket (in feet) above the ground (after 5 seconds).

What is the maximum height reached by the rocket?

• 8 feet

• 10 feet

• 42 feet

• 84 feet
