PLS HELP ASAPPPPP!!!!
1. Write the equation that models the height of the roller coaster.
a) Start by writing the equation of the circle. (Recall that the general form of a circle with the center at the origin is x2 + y2 = r2.
b) Now solve this equation for y. Remember the roller coaster is above ground, so you are only interested in the positive root.
2. Graph the model of the roller coaster using the graphing calculator. Take a screenshot of your graph and paste the image below, or sketch a graph by hand
Model 1: One plan to secure the roller coaster is to use a chain fastened to two beams equidistant from the axis of symmetry of the roller coaster. You need to determine where to place the beams so that the chains are fastened to the rollercoaster at a height of 25 feet.
3. Write the equation you would need to solve to find the horizontal distance each beam is from the origin.
4. Algebraically solve the equation you found in step 3.Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
5. Explain where to place the two beams.
Model 2: Another plan to secure the roller coaster involves using a cable and strut. Using the center of the half-circle as the origin, the concrete strut can be modeled by the equation 
and the mathematical model for the cable is
. The cable and the strut will intersect.
6. Graph the cable and the strut on the model of the roller coaster using the graphing calculator. Take a screenshot of your graph and paste the image below, or sketch a graph by hand.
7. Algebraically find the point where the cable and the strut intersect. Interpret your answer.
Model 3: Another plan to secure the roller coaster involves placing two concrete struts on either side of the center of the leg of the roller coaster to add reinforcement against southerly winds in the region. Again, using the center of the half-circle as the origin, the struts are modeled by the equations
and
. A vertical reinforcement beam will extend from one strut to the other when the two cables are 2 feet apart.
8. Graph the two struts on the model of the roller coaster.Take a screenshot of your graph and paste the image below, or sketch a graph by hand.
*Recall that a reinforcement beam will extend from one strut to the other when the two struts are 2 feet apart.
9. Algebraically determine the x -value of where the beam should be placed.
10. Explain where to place the beam.
