To solve an equation that contains LIKE TERMS you just have to combine them together.

For example, 3x-22+2x=48.

3x-22+2x=48 Add both x's together.

5x-22=48 <this will be the answer. After that, just solve it like a regular equation.

If the equation that you're trying to solve looks like this, 5x-41=59+9x
Subtract the smallest number on both sides. 

5x-41=59+9x
-5x           -5x
-41=59+4x <this will be your answer and then you just have to solve it like a regular equation

A student has learned that test scores in math are determined by this quadratic function: s(t) = -(t-6)^2 + 99
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

a. 6,  b. 99, c. 63

Step-by-step explanation:

A)  The function s(t) is in the vertex form. The standard vertex form is a(x-h)+k where the vertex is (h,k). The vertex is the highest (or lowest in some cases) point of the graph, so if we use s(t) to get the vertex we get that h=6 and k=99. This means that for a student to get a perfect score they need to study 6 hours

B) We can just take the k value from the first question because that's the highest value for s(t), so the highest score will be 99

C) For this one just plug in 0 for time, so -(0-6)^2+99. This equals -(-6)^2+99, which equals 99-36 =63
