The answer is y = -5/7x + 4/7! The first step is to subtract the 5x so it’s on the other side of the equal sign. So now the equation is 7y = -5x + 4. Then divide each of them for 7
Answer:
Work individually or in teams of two to construct and launch paper rockets using a teacher-built PVC-pipe launcher.
Following the flight of their rocket, calculate the altitude their rocket achieved.
Based on the flight performance of their rockets, analyze their rocket designs, modify or rebuild them, launch again, and calculate the altitude achieved to determine if their changes affected the performance of the rocket.
Conclude the activity by writing a post-flight mission report.

To factor this quadratic function, there are many ways that you can do this, the most common approach used to graph anything would be to make a table of values. Basically, make a chart with x coordinates on one side and y coordinates on the other side. Pick any values for your x coordinates and then find the correct y coordinate that results when you place that specific x coordinate into the function. After getting many points, plot those points on the grid and it should give you a parabola.
Another way to graph the function is to find the x intercepts, you can do this by setting the function to zero, and factoring the trinomial, using the appropriate method, then find the x intercepts
y = 2x^2 - 8x + 6
0 = (2x^2 - 6x - 2x + 6)
0 = 2x(x - 3) - 2(x - 3)
0 = (2x - 2)(x - 3).
