Is it possible for two different numbers, when squared, to give the same result?

Actually, yes, it is possible for two different numbers to give the same result when squared.

In my last answer, I wrote that it wasn't, but I realize now where my mistake was made.

When a number like positive 4 is squared, the answer is 16. When a number like negative 4 is squared, the answer is also 16. I think that the only time when two different squared numbers have the same result is when they are the same number but have a different positive/negative sign.

I hope this helps.

Law Incorporation [45]
H=-16t^2+56t+1, the airplane is shot up from a platform 1 foot above the ground, so 1= - 16t^2+56t+1, we solve this equation
(- 16t+56)t=0, (- 16t+56)=0 or t=o, - 16t+56=0, implies t =3.5s
so the answer is C)3.5 seconds

Centroid: Find AD if HD=24.
astraxan [27]
Centroid is commonly used with a triangle. It is the average of the lines presented in the triangle. So in this situtation the Centroid is 24. the reason is because the line segment is 24, so we do 24/1. The 1 is for how many lines there is, which is one.

(7.5 x 10^-3) + (5.8 x 10^-3 )

= (7.5 x 1/1000) + (5.8 x 1/1000) OR decimal form  --> (7.5 x 0.001) +(5.8 x 0.001)

0.0075 + 0.0058 = 3/400+29/5000

0.0133 = 133/10000 

Hope it helps.
