Question

Identify A, B, and C:
1.) 150 = -16t^2 + 100t
2.) 175 = -16t^2 + 100t
3.) 114 = -16t^2 + 95t

Answer 1

Is this identify A, B, and C as in find the values of \(a,b,c\) in
\[at^2 + bt + c = 0\]or something else?

Answer 2

Yes, that would be correct. I am referring to the Ax+By+C+0.

Answer 3

Okay, then this is pretty easy. Just rearrange your equation so that all the terms are on the same side of the equals sign, in descending order of the power of \(t\), and the coefficients are \(a,b,c\).

Answer 4

So, just for clarification, the A, B, and C for #1 would be:
A: -16
B: 100
C: -150

Answer 5

Yes, that looks correct.

Answer 6

K, thank you!
