You find the x coordinates using x = -b/2a = -6/2(-1) = 3
Substitute 3 in the equation and find y
y = -(3^2) + 6(3) - 12 = -9 + 18 - 12 = -3
Vertex (3,-3)
Y = 48 becuase you travelled the amount of minuets 45 x
37 1/2 +10 1/2 = 48 inches
48 inches is your answer ;)
6(4x + 5) = 3(x + 8) + 3
24x + 30 = 3x + 24 + 3
24x + 30 = 3x + 27
24x - 3x = 27 - 30
21x = - 3
x = -3/21
x = - 0.143 <==
10³ · x = 630
x = ?
10³ = 10 × 10 × 10 = 1,000
630 ÷ 1000 = x
630 ÷ 1000 = 0.63
x = 0.63
So we have:
10³ · 0.63 = 630
