It is 90 I believe please tell me if I was wrong
Answer:
30 s
Step-by-step explanation:
When the ball hits the ground h=0. To find the time t when this happens we must solve the equation h=0.
●h= 0
● -12t^2+360t =0
● t(-12t +360) = 0
● t = 0 or -12t +360 =0
● t=0 or -12t = -360
● t=0 or 12t =360
● t=0 or t=360/12
● t=0 or t= 30
The equation has two solutions.
The ball was fired with an initial speed of 800 feet per second so it cannot hit the ground at t=0.
So the ball hits the ground after 30 s.
Regroup
2(x-7)=36
Divide both sides by two
X-7= 36/2
Simplify 36/2 to 18
X-7=18
Add 7 to both sides
X=18+7
Simplify 18+7 to 25
X = 25
