The eqution of height y in terms of the time x is

y=-16x^2+116x+7.

We are asked when the rocket will strike the ground, so that is the same that sayin when will the rocket's height will be zero again, that is, y=0. so we have to solve

-16x^2+116x+7=0.

the solutions of this equations are

x=\frac{-116\pm\sqrt[]{116^2-4(-16)(7)}}{2(-16)}=\mleft\{\begin{aligned}-0.05 \\ 7.3\end{aligned}\mright.

So, the rocket will strike the ground after 7.3 seconds

Simplify (x - y + 1) - (x + y - 1)
bulgar [2K]
<span>(x - y + 1) - (x + y - 1)

x - y + 1 - x - y + 1

= (x - x) + (y - y) + (1 + 1)

= -2y + 2

In short, Your Answer would be: -2y + 2

Hope this helps!</span>
