It takes 4.3 seconds for the rocket to return to earth.
The equation is:

where -9.8m/sec² is the acceleration due to gravity, v₀ is the initial velocity, and h₀ is the initial height. We will go from the assumption that the rocket is launched from the ground, so h₀=0, and we are told that the initial velocity, v₀, is 42. This gives us:

We will use the quadratic formula to solve this. The quadratic formula is:

Plugging in our information we have:

x=0 is when the rocket is launched; x=4.3 is when the rocket lands.
I think answer should be a. Please give me brainlest let me know if it’s correct or not okay thanks bye
Answer: yes , it is possible
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first number be x and the second number be y .Then , the sum of the two numbers will be x + y , and their difference will be x - y.
Combining the two , we have :
x + y = 1 ............................... equation 1
x - y = 8 ................................. equation 2
solving the system of linear equation by substitution method. From equation 1 , make x the subject of the formula ,
x = 1 - y ...................... equation 3
Substitute equation 3 into equation 2 ,
1 - y - y = 8
1 - 2y = 8
add 2y to both sides
1 = 8 + 2y
subtract 8 from both sides
1 - 8 = 2y
- 7 = 2y
divide through by 2
y = 
y = - 3.5
substitute y = -3.5 into equation 3 to find the value of x , we have
x = 1 - y
x = 1 - ( - 3.5 )
x = 1 + 3.5
x = 4.5
Let us check :
x + y will be
4.5 + (-3.5) = 1
Also ,
x - y will be
4.5 - (-3.5)
⇒ 4.5 + 3.5 = 8
Number one ☝️ right maybe
Answer: x=7.7, y=40
3/x = 15/38.5
38.5*3=115.5
115.5/15= 7.7
x=7.7
3/8 = 15/y
15*8=120
120/3= 40
y=40
orrrr you can just easily find the scale factor which is 5, multiply 8 by 5 and get 40. And 38.5/5 which is 7.7
