The function of the water balloon is an illustration of a quadratic function.
The balloon will splat on the ground after 2.5 seconds
The function is given as:
When the balloon splats on the ground, the value of h(t) is 0.
So, we have:
Expand the expression
Factorize the above expression
Factor out 2t - 5 in the 2t - 5
Split the equation into 2
Rewrite as:
Solve for t
The value of t cannot be less than 0 i.e. negative.
So, we have
Divide 5 by 2
Hence, the balloon will splat on the ground after 2.5 seconds

I assume it is the last one, 3n^2, because the degree is the exponent, which is two and the three is the coefficient, which is next to the variable, plus it is a monomial, so there is only one term, eliminating the first two, the third one is just reversed. Therefore, the answer should be the last one. Hope this helps. :)
x and y are the packs of organic and inorganic fertilizer, respectively.
pounds of nitrogen added = 2x + 6y = 120
pounds of potassium added = 3x + 2y = 54
eliminate the y terms. subtract the first equation from 3 times the second equation.
9x + 6y = 162
-2x - 6y = -120
------------------
7x = 42
x = 6
y = 18
