During batting practice, two pop flies are hit from the same location, 2 s apart. the paths are modeled by the equations h = -16t2 + 56t and h = -16t2 + 156t - 248, where t is the time that has passed since the first ball was hit.

explain how to find the height at which the balls meet. then find the height to the nearest tenth.

sample response: use substitution to set the equations equal to each other. solve the resulting linear equation for time, t = 2.48 s. substitute 2.48 into an equation to find the height, h.

Jace wrote a sentence as an equation. 56 is 14 more than a number. 14+ = 56 which statement best describes jace's work? jace is not correct. the phrase more than suggests using the symbol > and jace did not use that symbol. jace is not correct. he was correct to use addition, but the equation should be 56+ p = 14 jace is not correct. the first number in the sentence is 56, so the equation should start with 56. jace is correct. the phrase more than suggests addition, so jace showed that 14 plus a variable equals 56. o
