Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
All you do is take the number choices and plug it into the equation. For example if you take A and plug it in the equation would look like -5(-5) < 25 and -5 times -5 is 25 so you know 25 is equal to 25 not less than.
If you plug in C you get -5(-4) < 25 and -5 times -4 is 20 and 20 is indeed less than 25
I think it’s either b or c
A=-32 (acceleration is the constant g) integrating with respect to t
v=-32t+vi but initial velocity is equal to zero as it is just "dropped".
h=-32t^2/2+hi, since the initial height is 144 ft
h(t)=-16t^2+144
The object will be at the ground when h(t)=0
-16t^2+144
-16(t^2-9)=0
-16(t+3)(t-3)=0, but since we know t>0
t=3 seconds.
