Question 138950: I have three quadratic equations that need to be solved and graphed on one graph to show the relationship between the size of three curves.
we choose at least 6 plots - I chose for X - o,1,2,3,-1,-2,-3. I have to solve for Y.
The equations are:
1. y=2x^+10x+12
2. y= -1/2x^+4x+3
3. 2y=x^+4x+5
My problem has been how to solve these type of equations
Any help would be appreciated
Thank YOu
Sorry, my name is Leonora

Question 140798: The path of a fallen object is given by the function s= -16t^2+v0t+s0, where v0 represents the initial velocity in ft/sec and s0 represents the initial height. The variable t is time in seconds and s is the height of the object in feet.
If a rock is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 32 feet per second from the top of a 40 foot building,how high is the rock after 0.5 seconds? After how many seconds will the rock reach maximum height?
Ive already answered the first question, i think it is 52 feet. Is this correct?
How do i set up my equation to answer the second question? (step by step please)

Question 13699: use the order of operations to simplify the expression
7-4[3-(4y-5)]
My book says the answer is 16y-25. I can not figure out how to get that answer.This is what I came up with
7-4[3-(4y-5)]
7-4[3-(-1y)]
7-4*4y
7-16y

Question 141993: What are the steps taken to solve this problem algebraically?
5-(2)/(x-6) = (10-2x)/(x-6)
I know that first i have to find the LCD which is 6, then multiply that times both sides of the equation. I also know that the answer will be x=6 because of the denominator (it has a variable)and it can't possibly be a solution. Can you help me set this equation up step by step so that i can see exactly how the answer is obtained

Question 142781: Solve the system by the elimination method.
0.3x-0.2y=4
0.4x+0.5y=-55/17
Multiply equations by 10 to eliminate decimals.
3x-2y=40
4x+5y= -550/17
Then to eliminate y multiply the first equation by5 and the second equation by 2.
15x-10y=200
8x+10y=-1100/17
I have no idea what do do from here...Everytime I try my fractions come out wrong and I get lost.

Question 144312: Solve the solution 7x-8y=24 and xy^2=1
I've done the following so far x=1/y^2
substitute so...7(1/y^2)-8y=24
7=24y^2+8y^3
let t=y^2...7=24t+8t^2......did I do this correctly?
8(t^2 +3t)=7
8(t^2+3t+9/4)=7+18 complete the square
8(t+3/2)^2=25...if I have done this correctly, then what are my next steps...
