a.
mc004-3.jpg
c.
mc004-5.jpg
b.
mc004-4.jpg
d.
mc004-6.jpg
 

 5.

Assuming the model is accurate, what is the highest height the child reaches while swinging?
mc005-3.jpg
a.
3 feet
c.
7 feet
b.
4 feet
d.
7.5 feet
 

 6. 

mc006-1.jpg
A person’s height on the Sky View Ferris wheel can be described by the equation:
