(CAN SOMEONE ACTUALLY HELP? IVE ASKED THIS QUESTION 3 TIMES AND JUST GOT A BUNCH OF TROLLS I NEED HELP)A water taxi travels around an island in a path that can be modeled by the equation y=0.5(x-14)^2 . A water skier is skiing along a path that begins at the point (6,4) and ends at the point (8,4)
Write a system of equations to model the problem.
Is it possible that the water skier could collide with the taxi? Explain
Answer:
It is given that the water taxi's path can be modeled by the equation y =0.5(x - 14)^2. Therefore, this is one of the equations in this system. Find a linear equation that will model the path of the water skier, which begins at the point (6,6) and ends at the point (8,-4). The slope is (-5). Use the slope and one point on the line to find the y-intercept of the line. The y-intercept of the line that passes through the points (6,6) and (8,-4) is (0,36). Thus, the equation is y=-5x+36. Now, to determine if it is possible for the water skier to collide with the taxi, we have to determine if there is a solution to the system of equations. To determine if there is a solution to the system of equations, solve the system using substitution. First, write the equation that models the water taxi's path in standard form. y=0.5(x - 14)^2-->0.5x^2-14x+98. Use substitution. Substitute for y in the equation and then solve for x. As the expression on the left side of the equation cannot easily be factored, use the Quadratic Formula to solve for x. Do x=-b(plusorminus)sqrrtb^2-4ac/2a. Identify a, b, and c. a=0.5, b=-9, and c=62. Substitute into the Quadratic Formula. If there is a negative number under the radical, there are NO solutions. Thus, the path of the water skier will never cross the path of the taxi.
In conclusion: It is not possible that the water skier could collide with the taxi as the two paths never cross.

Answer:
At the time of the American Revolution (1775–83; the American colonists' fight for independence from England) the earliest elements of another revolution—the Industrial Revolution—were taking root in the farms, workshops, businesses, and towns of the new nation. These elements included the development and use of labor-saving machines, the production of goods on a large scale, the employment of many laborers in one large operation, new management systems, and the efficient transportation of raw materials and manufactured goods. Industrialism was to have a profound effect on the way people lived in the United States, dramatically changing the nation's economy and way of life and transforming the United States from a rural (country) farming society into an urban (city) industrial society. Most historians agree that the Industrial Revolution took place over more than a century of U.S. history. The early roots that developed between the American Revolution and the American Civil War (1861–65; a war between the Union [the North], who opposed slavery, and the Confederacy [the South], who were in favor of slavery) unfolded slowly and only in certain sections of the country, but they set the stage for a powerful and rapid industrial expansion that, over the next half century, would make the United States the wealthiest and most powerful industrial nation in the world.

Answer:
Indoctrination
Explanation:
The same thing happens with religions, terrorists, and extremists
Answer:
World War I had a devastating effect on German-Americans and their cultural heritage. Up until that point, German-Americans, as a group, had been spared much of the discrimination, abuse, rejection, and collective mistrust experienced by so many different racial and ethnic groups in the history of the United States. Indeed, over the years, they had been viewed as a well-integrated and esteemed part of American society. All of this changed with the outbreak of war.

What were the main objectives of Radicals in 19th century
Answer:
The Radical movement arose in the late 18th century to support parliamentary reform, with additional aims including lower taxes and the abolition of sinecures.[1] John Wilkes's reformist efforts in the 1760s as editor of The North Briton and MP were seen as radical at the time, but support dropped away after the Massacre of St George's Fields in 1768. Working class and middle class "Popular Radicals" agitated to demand the right to vote and assert other rights including freedom of the press and relief from economic distress, while "Philosophic Radicals" strongly supported parliamentary reform, but were generally hostile to the arguments and tactics of the Popular Radicals. However, the term “Radical” itself, as opposed to “reformer” or “Radical Reformer”, only emerged in 1819 during the upsurge of protest following the successful conclusion of the Napoleonic War.[2] Henry "Orator" Hunt was the main speaker at the Manchester meeting in 1819 that ended in the Peterloo Massacre; Hunt was elected MP for the Preston division in 1830-32.
