Answer: The diver will hit the water after 0.4 seconds.

This is an example of a quadratic equation. It is in the shape of an upside down parabola.

Our goal is to solve the following equation:  0 = -16x^2 - 16x + 9

To do this, we can use the quadratic formula. The variables are:
a = -16
b = -16
c = 9

It will be: 16 +/- The square root of (-16)^2 - 4(-16)9 all divided by 2(-16).

This will give a positive answer of 0.4 seconds.

polet [3.4K]

It is given in the question that

h(x) = (fog)(x) = x^2 -81

And x^2 -81

can also be written as

(x^2 -40) -41

Therefore,

(fog)(x) = (x^2 -40)-41

f(g(x)) = (x^2 -40)-41

That gives,

g(x) = x^2 -40, f(x) = x-41
