Answer:

4 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

using the vertex formula of a quadratic,

a(x-h)^{2} + k, where (h,k) is the vertex

h = -8(t-0.5)^{2}+2    h is height and t is time in seconds

the vertex (maximum height) of the dolphin is (h,k) or (0.5, 2)  

Height of 1/2

time of 2 seconds

it will take 2 additional seconds to reach the water again.

this can also be solved using quadratic equation, but since it was already set up in vertex form, i'd use that.

2)$3.44

Step-by-step explanation:

4 cans and 3 loaves=11.67

8 cans and 1 loaf= 12.89.

Set up equation:

x=cans

y=loaves

4x+3y=11.67\\8x+y=12.89 This is the answer for question A.

Multiply eq1 by 2:

8x+6y=23.34

Subtract eq3 by eq2:

5y=10.45\\y=2.09

Substitute:

8x+2.09=12.89\\8x=10.8\\x=1.35

One can of soup and one loaf of bread=

1.35+2.09 or 3.44

So:

$3.44

Hope this helps :D Please hit the crown if u can !!

What is (2 × 2) to the 2nd power, minus 4?
Ivan
Well first, you would do 2 x 2 which equals 4. Then you make 4 to the 2nd power, which is 16. You subtract 4 from 16, and it's 12.
