Joe's Painting: 20x + 100 = y

Steve's Painting: 15x + 120 = y

x = hours worked

y = total income

We can find when the two equations intersect by making them equal to each other. That means we put an equal sign in the middle. So, it would look something like this:

20x + 100 = 15x + 120

First, we have to move the 100 by subtracting it from both sides.

20x = 15x + 120 - (100)

20x = 15x + 20

Then, we need to move the 15x by subtracting it from both sides.

20 - (15x) = 20

5x = 20

Lastly, we need to divide 5 from both sides.

5x = 20/5

x = 4

Therefore, Joe and Steve would have to work for 4 hours in order for their models to be equal to each other.

A rock is thrown at 0 seconds from a height of 6 feet. If the parabola representing the height as a function of time has a verte
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The correct option is;

The graph will have a height of 6 feet at 16 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The start time for throwing the rock = 0 s

The height from which the rock is thrown = 6 ft

The vertex of the parabola = 8 seconds

Given that the vertex is the axis of symmetry, then the time it takes the rock to reach the vertex (8 seconds) from the point (0, 6) will be the same time it takes the rock to reach the point on the other side of the parabola at the same 6 feet which will then have coordinates (8 + 8, 6) or (16, 6) which will be 6 feet in 16 seconds.
