Alonzo and Miguel scored a total of 54 points in a basketball game. Miguel scored 4 more points than Alonzo. How would I graph t

his as a system of equations??

A + m = 54, m = a + 4 and, a + m = 54, - a + m = 4,

Combine the equations: 2m = 58

Now solve: 2m = 58, 2m/2 = 58/2, m = 29, therefore a = 24

The equation for free fall at the surface of some planet (s in meters, t in seconds) is s=2.86t^2. How long does it take a rock

kotykmax [81]

The time taken by the rock will be 8.77 seconds.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is defined as the ratio of the time distance traveled by the body to the time taken by the body to cover the distance.

Given that:-

The equation for free fall at the surface of some planet (s in meters, t in seconds) is s = 2.86t²

The time will be calculated by using the speed formula.

Speed = Distance \ Time

25.1 = 2.86t² \ t

t = 25.1 / 2.86

t = 8.77 seconds

Therefore the time taken by the rock will be 8.77 seconds.

Solve each inequality, and then drag the correct solution graph to the inequality.

Nesterboy [21]

The correct solution graph to the inequalities are

$4(9x-18)>3(8x+12)$ → C

$-\frac{1}{3}(12x+6) \geq -2x +14$ → A

$1.6(x+8)\geq 38.4$ → B

(NOTE: The graphs are labelled A, B and C from left to right)

For the first inequality,

$4(9x-18)>3(8x+12)$

First, clear the brackets,

$36x-72>24x+36$

Then, collect like terms

$36x-24x>36+72\\12x >108$

Now divide both sides by 12

$\frac{12x}{12} > \frac{108}{12}$

∴ $x > 9$

For the second inequality

$-\frac{1}{3}(12x+6) \geq -2x +14$

First, clear the fraction by multiplying both sides by 3

$3 \times[-\frac{1}{3}(12x+6)] \geq3 \times( -2x +14)$

$-1(12x+6) \geq -6x +42$

Now, open the bracket

$-12x-6 \geq -6x +42$

Collect like terms

$-6 -42\geq -6x +12x$

$-48\geq 6x$

Divide both sides by 6

$\frac{-48}{6} \geq \frac{6x}{6}$

$-8\geq x$

∴ $x\leq -8$

For the third inequality,

$1.6(x+8)\geq 38.4$

First, clear the brackets

$1.6x + 12.8\geq 38.4$

Collect likes terms

$1.6x \geq 38.4-12.8$

$1.6x \geq 25.6$

Divide both sides by 1.6

$\frac{1.6x}{1.6}\geq \frac{25.6}{1.6}$

∴ $x \geq 16$

Let the graphs be A, B and C from left to right

The first graph (A) shows $x\leq -8$ and this matches the 2nd inequality

The second graph (B) shows $x \geq 16$ and this matches the 3rd inequality

The third graph (C) shows $x > 9$ and this matches the 1st inequality

Hence, the correct solution graph to the inequalities are

$4(9x-18)>3(8x+12)$ → C

$-\frac{1}{3}(12x+6) \geq -2x +14$ → A

$1.6(x+8)\geq 38.4$ → B
