X+2=2(2x-14) solve for x.

LekaFEV [45]

X =10.

First distribute the 2(2x-14) and get 4x-28.

x+2-4x-28. Subtract x from each side to get 2=3x-28.

Add 28 to both sides to equal 30=3x. Divide each side by 3 to get your final Answer, x=10.

Eli and Karl each throw a basketball straight up in the air at the same time. Eli is standing on a deck and the height of his ba

tino4ka555 [31]

We are to find the time at which the height of basketball thrown by Eli and Karl is equal. We have the functions which model the heights of both basketballs. So by equating the functions representing the height of both basketballs we can find the value of x from that equation at which the height is same for both basketballs.

$-4.9 x^{2} +12x+2.5=-4.9 x^{2} +14x \\ \\ 
12x+2.5=14x \\ \\ 
2.5=2x \\ \\ 
x=1.25$

Thus after 1.25 seconds the height of basketballs thrown by Eli and Karl will be at the same height. This can be verified by finding the heights of both at x=1.25

For Eli:
$Height=f(1.25)=-4.9 (1.25)^{2}+12(1.25)+2.5=9.84375$

For Karl:
$Height=f(1.25)=-4.9 (1.25)^{2}+14(1.25)=9.84375$

Thus height of both basketball is equal after 1.25 seconds
