In horseshoe pitching, the two stakes are 40 feet apart. The horseshoe court itself is 48 feet long. Each stake is the
same distance from the end of the court. How far is each stake from the end of the court?

i think it will be 4feet long of what i comprehend

the answer is

a.

x = 42

y = 10

i got it down chief.

if your equation is in the form ax2 + bx + c, you can find the maximum by using the equation:

max = c - (b2 / 4a).

the first step is to determine whether your equation gives a maximum or minimum.

-x2 + 4x - 2.     thats an example hope it

my dude, this isn't answerable due to the fact there is no question or clear desc of what you want them to do.
