Answer:

  t ≈ 1.118 . . . seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Set h=0 and solve for t.

  0 = -16t^2 +20

  0 = t^2 -20/16 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of t^2

  t = √(5/4) = (1/2)√5 ≈ 1.118 . . . . . add 5/4 and take the square root

The pinecone hits the ground about 1.12 seconds after it drops.

Answer:

x + 2, x ≠ -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that F(x) = x^2 + 4x + 4 factors into (x + 2)^2, and that we are dividing this by g(x) = x + 2.  The quotient is x + 2, which in this problem has been named h(x).  

The quotient (f/g)(x) is therefore x + 2 EXCEPT that this is not defined at x = -2, because the denominator, x + 2, will be zero there, undefined.

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar.
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

5 - x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(x)=25-x^2

g(x)=x+5

\begin{aligned}\left(\dfrac{f}{g}\right)(x) & = \dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}\\\\ & = \dfrac{25-x^2}{x+5}\\\\& = \dfrac{(5-x)(5+x)}{(x+5)}\\\\& = \dfrac{(5-x)(x+5)}{(x+5)}\\\\& = 5-x\end{aligned}
