Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The x-coordinate of the vertex is given by ...
x = -b/(2a)
for f(x) = ax^2 +bx +c.
We see that the vertex is at x = 1, and we are given a = -16. Then we can find "b" from ...
1 = -b/(2(-16))
32 = b
We know the y-intercept of the equation is 5 (the starting height), so the equation must be ...
h(t) = -16t^2 +32t +5 . . . . . matches the last choice
Given that
(2/x)+(3/y) = 13--------(1)
(5/x)-(4/y) = -2 -------(2)
Put 1/x = a and 1/y = b then
2a + 3b = 13 ----------(3)
On multiplying with 5 then
10a +15 b = 65 -------(4)
and
5a -4b= -2 ----------(5)
On multiplying with 2 then
10 a - 8b = -4 -------(6)
On Subtracting (6) from (4) then
10a + 15b = 65
10a - 8b = -4
(-)
_____________
0 + 23 b = 69
______________
⇛ 23b = 69
⇛ b = 69/23
⇛ b =3
On Substituting the value of b in (5)
5a -4b= -2
⇛ 5a -4(3) = -2
⇛ 5a -12 = -2
⇛ 5a = -2+12
⇛ 5a = 10
⇛ a = 10/5
⇛ a = 2
Now we have
a = 2
⇛1/x = 2
⇛ x = 1/2
and
b = 3
⇛1/y = 3
⇛ y = 1/3
<u>Answer :-</u>The solution for the given problem is (1/2,1/3)
<u>Check</u>: If x = 1/2 and y = 1/3 then
LHS = (2/x)+(3/y)
= 2/(1/2)+3/(1/3)
= (2×2)+(3×3)
= 4+9
= 13
= RHS
LHS=RHS is true
and
LHS=(5/x)-(4/y)
⇛ 5/(1/2)- 4/(1/3)
⇛(5×2)-(4×3)
⇛ 10-12
⇛ -2
⇛RHS
LHS = RHS is true
He multiplied rather than dividing.

Hope this helps!
