Answer : x = 20
Explanation :
3x + 2x +20 + 4x - 20 = 180
(3+2+4=9)
9x + 20 - 20
The 20s cancel each other out because one is positive and the other is negative
9x = 180
9x/9 = 180/9
X = 180 divided by 9
X = 20
H is the correct answer. Y= (x+2)^2-5
2 to the left x+2=0 x=-2

-1.5 ------ f(x) = 3(-1.5) - 5
= -4.5 -5
= 9.5
2 -------- f(x) = 3(2) - 5
= 6 -5
= 1
4 -------- f(x) = 3(4) - 5
= 12 - 5
= 7
(9.5, 1 , 7)
If the ball hit the ground it means that its height is equal to 0. In order to find the time after the ball <span>will hit the ground, we need to find the solution of the equation h(x)=0 which is different to 0.
-4.9x^2+21.3x=0
x(-4.9x+21.3)=0
-4.9x+21.3=0
x=21.3/4.9 = 4.3469 seconds</span>
This will only have one solution because it does not deal with a quadratic. Then to isolate x you need to get the similar terms on different sides by subtracting or adding, Then divide both sides by the number next to x (coefficient).
