So since we know that the post is 40 yards away, plug in 40 into the x variable of the equation to solve. If y is greater than 10 when x = 40, then it made it over. If y is less than 10 when x = 40, then it does not make it over. 
Firstly, solve the exponent: 
Next, solve the multiplications: 
Lastly, solve the addition and your answer will be: 
Since the football was 16 ft high, as opposed to the goal post's 10 ft, when it was at the goal post, it had successfully gone over the post. And since 16 ft is 6 ft higher than 10 ft, the football was 6 ft higher than the goal post when it went over.
Answer:
The solutions the equation 1 are -1.3 and 2. The solutions to equation 2 are -1 and 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the absolute value for equation 1. Then, set two equations equal to 5 and -5.
3x - 1 = 5 and 3x - 1 = -5
Solve for x in both and you would get -1.3 and 2.
Do the same for equation 2.
2x + 1 = -1 and 2x + 1 = 1
Solve for x and you would get -1 and 0.
Answer:

Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 1 1/4 x 9 = 11 we can't just jam the extra half a pound into the containers. Therefore, we need 10 containers to securely place the 11 1/2lbs of salad into the containers.
