Answer: A. x ≤ -3
x/3 - x-1/2 ≥ 1 would make x ≤ -3
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We are given this function for the height (h) after t seconds:

Seconds is t and we want to find the height after 1.5 seconds. Plug 1.5 in for t.

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.
Solve the exponent first.

Multiply.


Add.

This is already rounded to the nearest tenth, so it is the answer.
After 1.5 seconds, the basketball is at a height of 7.5 feet.
If a solution(s) exists y=y so we can say:
x^2-3x=-2x+2 add 2x to both sides
x^2-x=2 subtract 2 from both sides
x^2-x-2=0 factor
(x-2)(x+1)=0
So x=-1 and 2, using y=-2x+2 we find:
y(-1)=4 and y(2)=-2
So the two solutions occur at the points:
(-1,4) and (2,-2)
Answer:
Rational.
Step-by-step explanation:

To convert yards to feet, you would multiply it by 3. So, since there the pipe is 2 yards long, you could multiply 2*3 to get 6 feet. Then you can convert feet to inches by multiplying it by 12. 6*12 is equal to 72, so 2 yards is equal to 72 inches. Lastly, you can subtract 18 from 72, to get 54, and 54 inches would be your final answer.
