m = 5b
b = e - 2
e = 6
first, solve for the number of bears by replacing e with 6.
b = 6 - 2
b = 4
now do the same for the monkeys.
m = 5b
m = 5(4)
m = 20
check the answer if you wish. the zoo has 20 monkeys.
Answer:
Rocket B reaches a maximum height that is greater than the maximum height of Rocket A.
Step-by-step explanation:
A graph quickly shows the answer to this question.
__
In vertex form, the equation for Rocket A is ...
y = -6(x² -16x +8²) +6(8²)
y = -6(x -8)² +384 . . . . . . . . . maximum height is 384 feet
__
The corresponding equation for Rocket B is ...
y = -4(x² -20x +10²) +4(10²)
y = -4(x -10)² +400 . . . . . . . . maximum height is 400 feet
Rocket B reaches a maximum height greater than that of Rocket A.
1.567038973 is the answer
