Answer:
m = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Distribute first.</em>
24 = -6(m+1) + 18
24 = -6m - 6 + 18
<em>Then you combine like terms.</em>
24= -6m + 12
<em>Then you still combine like terms. You subtract 12 from each side.</em>
24 = -6m + 12
-12 - 12
12= -6m
<em>Then divide by -6 to isolate the variable.</em>
12 = -6m
/-6 /-6
-2 = m

Answer:
484feet
Step-by-step explanation:
If the height as a function of time could be modeled by the function h(t)=−16t^2 +16t+480, where t is the time in seconds and h is the height in feet.
The maximum height of Jason occurs when dh/dt = 0 (velocity is zero)
dh/dt = -32t + 16
0 = -32t + 16
32t = 16
t = 16/32
t = 1/2
t = 0.5secs
Get the maximum height
Recall that h(t)=−16t^2 +16t+480
Substitute t = 0.5
h(0.5)=−16(0.5)^2 +16(0.5)+480
h(0.5) = -4 + 8 + 480
h(0.5) = 4 + 480
h(0.5) = 484
Hence the maximum height reached by Jason is 484feet
Answer:
(x, y) = (-1, -3) or (4, 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator can show the solutions to this system.
__
You can equate expressions for y and solve for x.
3x = x^2 -4
x^2 -3x = 4 . . . . add 4-3x
x^2 -3x +2.25 = 6.25 . . . . complete the square by adding (-3/2)^2 where -3 is the coefficient of x.
(x -1.5)^2 = 2.5^2 . . . . . . rewrite as squares
x -1.5 = ±2.5 . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
x = 1.5 ± 2.5 = -1, +4
y = 3x = -3, +12, respectively
Solutions are ...
(x, y) = (-1, -3) . . . . and . . . . (4, 12)
