Answer:

after 4 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

h = 20 - 5(t - 2)²

When rocket is on ground then h = 0

Equate to zero and solve for t

20 - 5(t - 2)² = 0 ( subtract 20 from both sides )

- 5(t - 2)² = - 20 ( divide both sides by - 5 )

(t - 2)² = 4 ( take the square root of both sides )

t - 2 = ± \sqrt{4} = ± 2 ( add 2 to both sides )

t = 2 ± 2

Thus

t = 2 - 2 = 0 ← when rocket is launched

t = 2 + 2 = 4 ← when rocket hits the ground

The rocket reaches the ground after 4 seconds

What’s the surface area
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer: 38 in.^{2}


Step-by-step explanation:

1/ Find the area of the triangular sides. (1/2 x 2 x 6 = 6 in.^{2} for each triangular side)

2/ Find the area of each of the rectangular sides. In this case, the bottom (base) side is 2x6 = 12 in^{2}. The rectangular side on the left is 2x3 = 6 in.^{2}, and the rectangular side on the right is 4x2 = 8 in.^{2}.

3/ Add everything together. Rectangular Sides + Triangular Sides = Surface Area ---> 12 in.^{2} + 6 in.^{2} + 8 in.^{2} + 6 in.^{2} + 6 in.^{2} = 38 in.^{2}

4/ You have your answer, now hope it helps ! :)

How to find the exterior angle
Vlad1618 [11]

X + 12 + X - 6 = X + 50

2X + 6 = X + 50

X = 44

44 + 50 = 94

To check you can substitute X into the problem.

44 + 12 = 56

44 - 6 = 38

44 + 50 = 94

56 + 38 = 94

94 = 94
