Answer:

x=-28

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(x-1)+8(x-3)=6x+7

1) Distribute -3 to x and -1:

-3x+3

2) Distribute 8 to x and -3:

-3x+3+8x-24=6x+7

3) Combine alike terms:

5x-21=6x+7

4) Subtract 5x from both sides:

-21=x+7

5) Subtract 7 from both sides:

x=-28

Sarah kicked a ball in the air. The function
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: The ball hits the ground at 5 s

Step-by-step explanation:

The question seems incomplete and there is not enough data. However, we can work with the following function to understand this problem:

f=30 t- 6t^{2} (1)

Where f models the height of the ball in meters and t the time.

Now, let's find the time t when the ball Sara kicked hits the ground (this is when f=0 m):

0=30 t- 6t^{2} (2)

Rearranging the equation:

6t^{2}-30 t=0 (3)

Dividing both sides of the equation by 6:

t^{2}-5 t=0 (4)

This quadratic equation can be written in the form at^{2}+bt+c=0, and can be solved with the following formula:  

t=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a} (5)  

Where:  

a=1  

b=-5  

c=0  

Substituting the known values:  

t=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^{2}-4(1)(0)}}{2(1)} (6)  

Solving we have the following result:

t=5 s  This means the ball hit the ground 5 seconds after it was kicked by Sara.

As a lifeguard, sara earns a base pay of $80 per day. if her day involves swim instruction, sara earns an additional 9t dollars,
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sara's base pay is $80

(a) The 9t represents the additional amount of money that she earns if she gives instruction for t hours. 9 stands for $9 per hour

b)The term in the expression is t which stands for the number of hours that she instructs. The coefficient is 9 which stands for the hourly rate

c) The expression for 7 hours would be

We will substitute t into 80 + 9t. It becomes

80 + 9×7

d) in all, she will earn

80 + 9×7 = $143
