  3.   Anthony and Sanford each throw a football. The height of Anthony's throw can represented by the equation A = –10x2 + 15x + 22, where A is height and x is the time in seconds. The height of Sanford's throw can represented by the equation S = –9x2 + 14x + 23. At time x, how much higher is Sanford's throw?
    A. x2 + x + 1 B. x2 + x – 1
    C. x2x – 1 D. x2x + 1
    Hint

  4.   Anthony and Sanford each throw a football. The height of Anthony's throw can represented by the equation A = –10x2 + 15x + 22, where A is height and x is the time in seconds.
