Arisa [49]3 years ago

Answer:

b=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

99 = 2(-7b + -3) + 7

Reorder the terms:

99 = 2(-3 + -7b) + 7

99 = (-3 * 2 + -7b * 2) + 7

99 = (-6 + -14b) + 7

Reorder the terms:

99 = -6 + 7 + -14b

Combine like terms: -6 + 7 = 1

99 = 1 + -14b

Solving

99 = 1 + -14b

Solving for variable 'b'.

Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '14b' to each side of the equation.

99 + 14b = 1 + -14b + 14b

Combine like terms: -14b + 14b = 0

99 + 14b = 1 + 0

99 + 14b = 1

Add '-99' to each side of the equation.

99 + -99 + 14b = 1 + -99

Combine like terms: 99 + -99 = 0

0 + 14b = 1 + -99

14b = 1 + -99

Combine like terms: 1 + -99 = -98

14b = -98

Divide each side by '14'.

b = -7

Simplifying

b = -7

A rock is dropped from a bridge 320 feet above the river. The pathway that the rock takes can be modeled by the equation h= -16t
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

The rock will take about 4.5 seconds to reach the river

Step-by-step explanation:

* lets study the situation of the rock

- The rock is dropped means the initial velocity is zero

- The motion is free fall under earth gravity

- The rock dropped from a bridge 320 feet above the river

- The equation of the pathway is h = -16t² + 320

- When the rock reach to the ground the height will be zero

* Now lets substitute h by zero in the equation to find t

∵ h = -16t² + 320

∵ h = 0

∴ 0 = -16t² + 320 ⇒ add 16t² to both sides

∴ 16t² = 320 ⇒ divide both sides by 16

∴ t² = 320/16 = 20

∴ t² = 20 ⇒ take √ for both sides

∴ t = √20 = 2√5 ≅ 4.5 seconds

* The rock will take about 4.5 seconds to reach the river

Find the equation of a line that is parallel to
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

g(x) = 3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

If a line is parallel to another, they have the same slope.

Step 1: Define variables

<em>m</em> = 3

Random pt (2, 3)

y = 3x + b

Step 2: Find <em>b</em>

3 = 3(2) + b

3 = 6 + b

b = -3

Step 3: Write parallel linear equation

y = 3x - 3
