x = 27 + 3 √ 129/ 4, 27 − 3 √ 129/ 4
Please note: the entire equation mentioned is divided by 4, not only the last term.
x approximates to 15.26836251, − 1.76836251
That concludes my response. I hope this is helpful. You will still need to work on finding y and z, which can be quite challenging:)
The inverse function is defined as h(x) = 4x + 48. To derive it from f(x) = 1/4x - 12, substitute y = f(x) and rearrange the equation to isolate x as shown, leading to h(x).
Answer:
2.5 seconds after the initial ball was struck.
Step-by-step explanation:
The height equations are:
At the point where the balls intersect, both heights are alike, therefore:
-16t² + 56t = -16t² + 156t - 248
-16t² + 56t + 16t² - 156t + 248 = 0
- 100t + 248 = 0
248 = 100t
t = 248/100
t = 2.48 ≈ 2.5
