We are to find the time at which the height of basketball thrown by Eli and Karl is equal. We have the functions which model the heights of both basketballs. So by equating the functions representing the height of both basketballs we can find the value of x from that equation at which the height is same for both basketballs.
Thus after 1.25 seconds the height of basketballs thrown by Eli and Karl will be at the same height. This can be verified by finding the heights of both at x=1.25
For Eli:
For Karl:
Thus height of both basketball is equal after 1.25 seconds

Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
"a certain whole number" is a number that we don't know, so pick a variable, let's use n
"Twice" means two times, so we'll use 2n for this.
"subtracted from" means the 2n will be AFTER the minus sign.
____ - 2n
What goes in front? "3 times the square of the number" 3n^2
Now we have 3n^2 - 2n
Lastly, we see the result is 133. So this gives us:
3n^2 - 2n = 133 To solve, subtract 133 from both sides of the equation.
3n^2 -2n - 133 = 0 Next FACTOR.
(3n + 19)(n - 7) = 0
3n+19=0 and n-7=0
n=-19/3 and n=7
Since we are looking for a whole number choose n=7
