♡ The Explanation/Step-By-Step ♡

-  -4 (x + 5) - 9 = -45

Add 9 to both sides! This makes:

-4 (x + 5) - 9 + 9 = -45 + 9

Simplify!

-4(x + 5) = -36

Divide both sides by -4! This makes:

-4(x + 5) over -4 = -36/-4

Simplify!

x + 5 = 9

Subtract 5 from both sides! This makes:

x + 5 - 5 = 9 - 5

Simplify

x = 4

If x = 4..

-4 (4 + 5) - 9 = -45

-4(4 + 5) - 9

4(4 + 5) = 36

= -36 -9

Subtract the numbers: -36 -9 = -45!

= -45

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 99 to both sides.

-4(x+5)=-45+9−4(x+5)=−45+9

Simplify  -45+9−45+9  to  -36−36.

-4(x+5)=-36−4(x+5)=−36

Divide both sides by -4−4.

x+5=\frac{-36}{-4}x+5=

​−4

​​−36

​​  

Two negatives make a positive.

x+5=\frac{36}{4}x+5=

​4

​

​36

​​  

Simplify  \frac{36}{4}

​4

​

​36

​​   to  99.

x+5=9x+5=9

Subtract 55 from both sides.

x=9-5x=9−5

Simplify  9-59−5  to  44.

x=4

A ball is thrown vertically in the air with an initial velocity of 60 feet per second from an initial height of 6 feet. The equa
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

  1. 1.875 seconds to reach the maximum height
  2. 62.25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem can be solved by putting the equation into vertex form.

  s - 6 = -16(t^2 -15/4t)

  s -6 -16(15/8)^2 = -16(t^2 -15/4t +(15/8)^2) . . . . add the square of half the x-coefficient inside parentheses and equivalent amount on the other side of the equation

  s -62.25 = -16(t -15/8)^2 . . . . write as a square, simplify the constant

  s = -16(t -1.875)^2 +62.25 . . . . put in vertex form

The vertex of the downward-opening parabola is at (t, s) = (1.875, 62.25).

1. It took 1.875 seconds for the ball to reach its maximum height.

2. The ball went up to 62.25 feet.

Solve for y by setting one equation =to X after that you can substitute the equation into the other one let's set the first one in X= FORM
X-7y=10
-2x+14y=-20

Add 7y to both sides of the first equation to let x stand alone
X=7y+10
Now you can substitute x on the second equation
-2 (7y+10)+14y=-20
Distribute
-14y-20+14y=-20
Add and simplify
Us cancel out =0
-20=-20
0=0
They are the same equations you can also divide the second equation by -2 which would make it look like this
X-7y=10
-2 (x-7y=10)
