.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
11:58:55 Explain how you solved for one of the variables.
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> I subtracted my first new equation from my second new equation and I got 6= 224.72a ....then I divided and got that a= .027
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:00:04 ** STUDENT SOLUTION CONTINUED: In order to solve for a, I eliminated b by multiplying the first equation by 21.2, which was the b value in the second equation. Then, I multiplied the seond equation by -10.6, which was the b value of the first equation, only I made it negative so they would cancel out. **
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> I understand what I did but you expalined it alot better. I too multiplied to get the b's to cancel out or go away then I solved for a.
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................

.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:04:29 ** STUDENT SOLUTION CONTINUED: The given clock time was 46 seconds, and my depth prediction was 16.314 cm.**
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> I pluged in 46 for my t value and got 21.462
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:04:46 What clock time corresponds to the given depth (give depth also)?
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> 21.462
.................................................
......!!!!!!!!...................................
12:05:54 ** The specifics will depend on your model and the requested depth. For your model y = (.0165)x^2 + (-2)x + 73.4, if we wanted to find the clock time associated with depth 68 we would note that depth is y, so we would let y be 68 and solve the resulting equation: 68 = .01t^2 - 1.6t + 126 using the quadratic formula. There are two solutions, x = 55.5 and x = 104.5, approximately. **
......!!!!!!!!...................................
RESPONSE --> I used y= -b +- sqroot( b^2-4ac) / 2(a)
