Answer:Hope This Helps ☺️

Step-by-step explanation:

She is not correct because she did not substitute the same number in both expressions in Step 1

Step-by-step explanation:

CASE 1: substitute 1 for x to both sides of the equations

L.H.S

-(4x-5)+2(x-3)

-(4 (1) - 5)+ 2(1-3) = - (-1) + 2(-2) = 1 - 4 = -3

R.H.S

-2x - 5

-2(1) - 5 = -2-5 = -7

Hence for x= 1

-(4x-5)+2(x-3) ≠ -2x -5

Because -3 ≠ -7

CASE 2: substitute -1 for x to both sides of the equations

L.H.S

-(4x-5)+2(x-3)

-(4 (-1) - 5)+ 2(-1-3) = - (-9) + 2(-4) = 9 - 8 = 1

R.H.S

-2x - 5

-2(-1) - 5 = 2-5 = -3

Hence for x= -1

-(4x-5)+2(x-3) ≠ -2x -5

Because 1 ≠ -3

Answer:

She is not correct because she did not substitute the same number in both expressions in Step 1

(a) h(t) gives the height at time t, so the flare's starting height is given by h(0):

h(0)=-5(0)^2+90(0)+1=1\,\mathrm m

(b) There are several ways to find the maximum height of the flare. One is to complete the square and write h(t) in vertex form:

-5t^2+90t+1=-5(t^2+18t)+1=-5(t^2-18t+81-81)+1=-5(t-9)^2+406

That is, h(t) describes a parabola whose vertex is located at (9, 406); the coefficient of -5 tells us that the parabola is concave, which means the parabola "opens" downward, and the vertex is a maximum. So the maximum height is 406 m.

(C) The flare hits the ground when h(t)=0:

-5t^2+90t+1=0\implies t=9\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{406}5}

or at about t\approx-0.011 and t\approx18.01. We ignore the negative solution (negative time makes no physical sense).

Math help again please
vovangra [49]
Hey there! :D

First, find the slope. 

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) I'm using points (0,3) and (1,5)

m=(5-3)/(1-0)
m= 2/1
m=2

Now, plug that into point slope. Use point (1,5) m=2

y-y1= m(x-x1)

y-5= 2(x-1)

Distribute. 

y-5=2x-2

Add 5 to both sides.

y=2x+3 == equation of the line in slope intercept form. y=mx+b

I hope this helps!
