Step 1

4x - 2y = 8 ,y = 3/2x - 2 equation/Question

Step 2

4x-2y=8 Substitute

4x-2( 3 /2 x-2)=8

Step 3

x+4=8 simplify

x=4

Step 4

y= 3 /2 x-2 substitute 4 for x

y= 3 /2 (4)-2

Step 5

y= 3 /2 (4)-2 simplify

y=4

answer

x=4

y=4

Question:

Britney throws an object straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 27 ft/s from a platform that is 10 ft above the ground. Use the formula h(t)=−16t2+v0t+h0 , where v0 is the initial velocity and h0 is the initial height. How long will it take for the object to hit the ground?

Answer:

It takes 2 seconds for object to hit the ground

Solution:

The given equation is:

$h(t) = -16t^2 + v_0t+h_0$

Initial velocity = 27 feet/sec

$h_0 = 10\ feet$

Therefore,

$h(t) = -16t^2 +27t+10$

At the point the object hits the ground, h(t) = 0

$-16t^2 +27t+10 = 0\\\\16t^2-27t-10=0$

Solve by quadratic formula,
