Answer:
this question doesn`t have much information but here`s my best guess
(2x-y)^2
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:
(1)
Where 
models the height of the ball in meters and 
the time.
Now, let's find the time when the ball Sara kicked hits the ground (this is when 
):
(2)
Rearranging the equation:
(3)
Dividing both sides of the equation by 
:
(4)
This quadratic equation can be written in the form 
, and can be solved with the following formula:
(5)
Where:
Substituting the known values:
(6)
Solving we have the following result:
This means the ball hit the ground 5 seconds after it was kicked by Sara.
2x - 3 = 11
2x = 14
x = 7
Using this value, The answers would be the following:
A. 23/21 (assuming you are dividing 2 by 3x; if you multiplied 2/3 by x, the answer would then be 17/3)
B. 21/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b represent the number of cups of butter needed.
Let s represent the number of cups of sugar needed.
Let o represent the number of cups of oat needed.
Let f represent the number of cups of flour needed.
The recipe calls for two times as many cups of sugar as butter. It means that
s = 2b
Two times as many cups of oats as sugar. It means that
o = 2s
Two times as many cups of flour as oats. It means that
f = 2o
If Duane puts in one cup of butter, it means that b = 1
Therefore,
s = 2 × 1 = 2 cups
o = 2s = 2 × 2 = 4 cups
f = 2o = 2 × 4 = 8 cups
Therefore, he needs to add 8 cups of flour
