Given 
s=16t^2 
where
s=distance in feet travelled (downwards) since airborne with zero vertical velocity and zero air-resistance
t=time in seconds after release

Here we're given
s=144 feet
=>
s=144=16t^2 
=> 
t^2=144/16=9
so
t=3
Ans. after 3 seconds, the object hits the ground 144 ft. below.

Answer:

After 3 seconds the object hit the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

An object is dropped off a building that us 144 feet tall. After how many seconds does the object hit the ground.

Given that displacement, s = 16t²

To reach ground displacement should be 144 feet.

That is

            s = 16t² = 144

                      t² = 9

                       t = 3 seconds.

After 3 seconds the object hit the ground.

Each side of an equilateral triangle measure 11 centimeters. To the nearest tenth of an centimeter, what is the length of the al
Orlov [11]
The length of the altitude is 9.5 cm.

The altitude bisects the base of the equilateral triangle (this is because the two sides emerging from the vertex are equal).  This gives us a right triangle with leg 5.5 and hypotenuse 11.  We use the Pythagorean theorem:

5.5² + h² = 11²
30.25 + h² = 121

Subtract 30.25 from both sides:
30.25 + h² - 30.25 = 121 - 30.25
h² = 90.75

Take the square root of both sides:
√h² = √90.75
h = 9.5

Give the slope of each line. Also, state if the lines are parallel (yes or no).
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

AB slope is 1/2

CD slope is 1/3

Since the slopes of the lines aren't the same, the lines aren't parallel.
