Plug in the numbers so it will turn out as 21. Divided by 3(2) . You know that if 2 numbers are close by each other than you are going to multiply so 3 times 2 = 6 , then you do 21 divided by 6 = 3.5
The answer = 3.5
Answer:
p=-9
Step-by-step explanation:
132=-6+3 (1-5p)
-6+3 (1-5p)=132
-6+3 (1-5p)+6=132+6
3(1-5p)=138
3(1-5p)/3=138/3
1-5p=46
1-5p-1=46-1
-5p=45
p=-9
Hope that helps you, Good luck!
Answer:
64
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>[using calculus] </em>When the function h(t) reaches its maximum value, its first derivative will be equal to zero (the first derivative represents velocity of the ball, which is instantaneously zero). We have 
, which equals zero when 
. The ball therefore reaches its maximum height when t = 1.5. To find the maximum height, we need to find h(1.5), which is 64 feet.
<em>[without calculus] </em>This is a quadratic function, so its maximum value will occur at its vertex. The formula for the x-coordinate of the vertex is -b/2a, so the maximum value occurs when t = -48/(2*16), which is 1.5. The maximum height is h(1.5), which is 64 feet.

Answer:
$2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks for the total cost of a notebook and pen together. We don't need to find their individual costs in order to answer the question.
Sometimes we get bored solving systems of equations in the usual ways. For this question, let's try this.
The first equation has one more notebook than pens. The second equation has 4 more notebooks than pens. If we subtract 4 times the first equation from the second, we should have equal numbers of notebooks and pens.
(8n +4p) -4(3n +2p) = (16.00) -4(6.50)
-4n -4p = -10.00 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
n + p = -10.00/-4 = 2.50 . . . . divide by the coefficient of (n+p)
The total cost for one notebook and one pen is $2.50.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The first equation has 1 more notebook than 2 (n+p) combinations, telling us that a notebook costs $6.50 -2(2.50) = $1.50. Then the pen is $2.50 -1.50 = $1.00.
One could solve for the costs of a notebook (n) and a pen (p) individually, then add them together to answer the question. We judge that to be more work.
