The coefficient of x is the value for slope in y-intercept form, and the number that we add or subtract is our y-intercept. So in this case, we want to look for a "-2" in front of x and a +4 in the equation.
Answer choice A fulfills those conditions. (I am also assuming that answer choice A should have had an x in it, but you accidentally forgot to type it.)

Answer:
(x+4)+(2x)
Step-by-step explanation:
It takes 6 seconds for it to hit the ground.
0 = -5x²+20x+60
We can solve this by factoring. First factor out the GCF, -5:
0 = -5(x²-4x-12)
Now we want factors of -12 that sum to -4. -6(2) = -12 an -6+2 = -4:
0 = -5(x-6)(x+2)
Using the zero product property, we know that either x-6=0 or x+2=0; this gives us the answers x=6 or x=-2. Since we cannot have negative time, x=6.

Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is just really long- it's trying to confuse you with complicated wording. Here's it demystified:
a)
t = 0 degrees Celsius
d = 1500 meters
Find the temperature, T.
b)
d = 300 meters
T = 26 degrees Celsius
Find the ground temperature, t.
NOTE: The temperatures are different! T is the final temperature and t is the ground temperature.
