<h2>The rule for x is + 1, and the rule for y is + 4.</h2>
If an number is an absolute value, it means that the number will be positive. You would plug and check the same way you would for any other equation and it a solution is considered extraneous if the equation is not equal
Answer: Hello your question is poorly written attached below is the complete question
answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
attached below is the detailed solution using LU factorization
The ball describes a parabola, as you can see in the attached picture. So, the point where the ball strike the ground is the point where the parabola meets the x axis. In fact, the x-axis is the set of points where y=0, which means that the ball has height 0 or -again- it hits the ground.
So, we have to set y=0 in our equation and look for the positive solution. We have
And the positive solution is
So that's the distance from the child where the ball strikes the ground.
