5x - 9 = 26
5x - 9 + 9 = 26 + 9
5x = 35
5x/5 = 35/5
X = 7
Answer:
16 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The height is 26 miles. Multiply that by 2 which gets 52 and then subtract that from 84. That gives you 32 which means the sum of the lengths is 32/2 which is 16 miles
Answer:
y = - 2(x - 1)² + 18
Step-by-step explanation:
- 2x² + 4x + 16 ← factor out - 2 from the first 2 terms
= - 2(x² - 2x) + 16
using the method of completing the square
add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 2x
= - 2(x² + 2(- 1)x + 1 - 1) + 16
= - 2(x - 1)² + 2 + 16
= - 2(x - 1)² + 18 ← in vertex form
