Sasha is tracking the results of the water balloon contest. she wants to determine how high maggie’s balloon is when it is directly over the 2-yard line of the field. she knows the equation is y = -x + 17x - 42

Maggie's ballon is 12 high.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the y-value, and the x-value is given:

Plug the values in to solve for y.

y = -(2)^2 + 17(2) - 42 y

= -(4) + 34 - 42 y

= -4 + 34 - 42 y

= -12

The negative sign tells the direction. It is negative because the ballon is in the opposite direction.

this is the formula: v = the value of investment at the end of the time period

p = the principal amount (the initial amount invested)

r = the annual interest rate

n = the annual frequency of compounding (how many times a year interest is added)

t = the number of years the money is invested

^ means raise to the power of

804.75
