find 3 consecutive integers such that 3 times the sum of the first and third is 84 less than 12 times the secind

1 answer:

8 0

Let x = 1st integer
x + 1 = 2nd integer
x + 2 = 3rd integer
3(x + x + 2) = 12(x + 1) - 84
3(2x + 2) = 12x + 12 - 84
6x + 6 = 12x - 72
-6x = -78
x = 13
Answer: 13, 14, 15

The height of a volleyball, h, in feet, is given by h = −16t2 + 11t + 5.5, where t is the number of seconds after it has been hi

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

It will travel high enough

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the vertex of the parabola:

x=-b/2a

x=-11/2(-16)

x=-11/-32

x=11/32

Plug x=11/32 into quadratic to get the y-coordinate:

h=-16(11/32)^2+11(11/32)+5.5

h=7.391

Since 7.391>7.3, the volleyball will travel high enough (aka. yes)
