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.
Answer: The maximum possible value of y is 30 ;)
Since p = x² - 7, you can substitute/plug in p for x² - 7
So:
(x² - 7)² - 4x² + 28 = 5
(p)² - 4x² + 28 = 5 You can factor out -4 from (-4x² + 28)
p² - 4(x² - 7) = 5 Plug in p
p² - 4p = 5 Subtract 5
p² - 4p - 5 = 0 Your answer is C
The first decimal point is tenth. 4.88
when rounding, we just look at the number right after the number you want to round to. it's 8 right? since 8 is closer to 10 than 0,
we round it to 4.9
(4.8 + 0.10)
