Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Declaration

Let Heather's number of messages = x

Let Eric's number of messages = x + 9

Let Chang's number of messages = 3(x +9)

Equation

x + x + 9 + 3(x + 9) = 116    

Solution

x + x + 9 + 3(x + 9) = 116                             Remove the brackets

x + x + 9 + 3x + 27 = 116                             Combine like terms

x + x + 3x + 9 + 27 = 116

5x + 36 = 116                                               Subtract 36 from both sides

5x + 36 - 36 = 116 - 36                                Combine

5x = 80                                                       Divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 80/5

x = 16

Answer

Heather = 16

Eric = 16 + 9 = 25

Chang = 3*25 = 75

The function(t)--4.87+18.75 is used to model the height of an object projected in the air, where h() is the height in
NNADVOKAT [17]

The domain and range of the given function are equal to (0, 3.85) and (0, 18.75) respectively.

<h3>How to calculate the domain of the function?</h3>

In this exercise, you're given the following function h(t) = -4.87t² + 18.75t. Next, we would equate the function to zero (0) to determine its domain as follows:

0= -4.87t² + 18.75t.

4.87t(-t + 3.85) = 0

t = 0 or t = 3.85.

Therefore, the domain is 0 ≤ t ≤ 3.85 or (0, 3.85).

<h3>How to calculate the range of the function?</h3>

h(t) = -4.87t² + 18.75t

h(t) = -4.87(t² - 3.85t + 3.85 - 3.85)

h(t) = -4.87(t - 1.925)² + 18.05

Therefore, the range is 0 ≤ h ≤ 18.05 or (0, 18.75).
