Answer:
RS = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Set-up equation like this -- 2x+6+16=4x-4
Solve for x
Then plug x in for the length of RS. You should get 32 for RS.
The ball is at a height of 14 feet after 1.17 and 0.64 seconds.
This is an example of a quadratic equation. Write out the equation with 14 in the place of the height. Then, set it equal to zero.
14 = 2 + 29t - 16t^2
0 = -16t^2 + 29t -12
Now, we can use the quadratic equation to solve.
A = -16
B = 29
C = -12
You will get the solutions of 1.17 and 0.64.
2 I think it is not sure hope it helps you out
All you have to do is substitute the y value from the 1st equation into the second equation and solve...
a) y= 2-x
5x + 4y = 5
Substitute (2-x) into the second equation anywhere there is a y...
5x + 4y = 5
5x + 4(2-x) = 5
Now solve
5x + 8 - 4x = 5
5x - 4x + 8 = 5
x + 8 = 5
x = -3
Now that you have a solution for x, substitute -3 into either of the original equations anywhere there is an x then solve for y...
y = 2 - x
y = 2 - (-3)
y = 2+3 = 5
You solved for x and got -3 and solved for y and got 5, so your solution set is
(-3, 5).
Now check it by substituting both numbers into one of the original equations and you should have a true statement if it is correct...
y = 2 - x
5 = 2 - (-3)
5 = 2+3
5 = 5
True statement... it checks!
note* during the check, if the equation would have worked out to something like 2 = 5, then that is a false statement therefore the solution set would be wrong and you'd have to go back and find the mistake.
It's a my homie because of the proportion in the initial explanation
