Answer: if S is the distance, the fact that the distance is proportional to the square of the time means that S(t) = a*t^{2} where a is a constant of proportionality, with units of \frac{feet}{s^{2} }.

We know that S(1) = 16 feet = a*1, then a = 16\frac{feet}{s^{2} }

then S(2) = 16*4 feet = 64.

and if we want to know in how much time te objet will fall 400feet, then S(t₀) = 400 feet = 16*t₀^{2}

so t₀ = \sqrt{400/16} = 5s.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{b}{-3}+4< 13

Step 1: Subtract 4 form both sides

Step 2: Multiply both sides by (-3). when we are multiplying by (-3) the < will change to >.

\frac{b}{-3}+4-4 9*-3\\\\b > -27
