Answer:

13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

So the length of those 2 points is 6+6 = 12.

The height would be 8-3 =5

Using pythagoras, you can find out the length of the line joining the 2 points so:

$5^2 + 12^2 = 169$

$\sqrt{169} = 13$ units

If an object is dropped from a height of 96ft, the function h(t) = -62 + 96 gives the height of the object after t seconds. When

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:Since we want to know how much time elapsed since the object was launched until it ht the ground. At the ground, the height is 0.

Therefore the equation h(t) = 80t – 16t2 becomes 0= 80t – 16t2

Solving the equation for t gives 80t =16t2 or 16t=80 or t=5sec

The object hits the ground 5 seconds after it is launched.
