f(x) means x = -2 if you multiply 1/2 by -2 you get -1
Wait if he worked 1 hour this question still makes no since
Answer:
The answer is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given formula h(t)=−16t2+v0t+h0 , where v0 is the initial velocity and h0 is the initial height.
In this case, the initial postion is a platform 30ft above ground so h0=+30
The initial velocity is 38 ft/s straight up into the air so v0=+38
h(t)=-16t2+38t+30
When the object hits the ground, h=0.
h=-16t2+38t+30=0
Simplifying 8t2-19t-15=0
(8t+5)(t-3)=0
t=-5/8 or 3
As time cannot be -ve, t=3s. The answer is C.
Y-coordinates are same so you just need to find distance from -4 to -8 which would be 4 because |-4 - -8| = |-4 + 8| = 4.
Final answer: 4
Hope this helps.
