Answer: b
Step-by-step explanation: edge 2020
First, let the number of skis rented by x and the number of snowboards rented by y. We can then assemble the first equation from the amount of money made from the rentals.
44x + 58y = 2232
The second equation can come from the fact that 9 more skis were rented than snowboards.
y = x - 9
Therefore our system is:
44x + 58y = 2232
y = x - 9
A=g≈-32
v=⌠a dt since a≈-32
v=-32t+C, where C is the initial velocity, which we are told is 20 ft/s
v=-32t+20
h=⌠v dt
h=-32t^2/2+20t+C, where C is the initial height, so what is a reasonable initial height? How about 3 ft since we are swinging a bat around maybe our waist level... maybe :P
h=-16t^2+20t+3
Your choices may have made a different assumption about the initial height of course but you did not show your choices, but certainly it will be:
h(t)=-16t^2+20t+hi, where hi is the initial height in feet.
This of course ignores air resistance and flight dynamics of a spinning ball with seams, which will make a significant difference in real life :)
