Y = -8 because 1/2 * -4 is equivalent to -2 and then -2 minus 6 is negative 8 so your answer y=8

A ball is thrown in the air from a ledge. Its height in feet is represented by f(x) = –16(x2 – 5x – 6), where x is the number of

Oduvanchick [21]

The ball takes 6 seconds to reach the ground.

Explanation

Height of the ball after $x$ seconds is represented by....

$f(x)= -16(x^2 -5x-6)$

The height of the ball is 0 feet when it hits the ground. So, for finding the number of second the ball takes to reach the ground, we will just plug $f(x)=0$ into the above equation and then solve for $x$ .

Thus...

$0=-16(x^2-5x-6)\\ \\ x^2-5x-6=0\\ \\ (x-6)(x+1)=0$

Using zero-product property....

$x-6=0\\ x=6$

and

$x+1=0\\ x=-1$ (Negative value is ignored as time can't be negative)

So, the ball takes 6 seconds to reach the ground.

On average one tank holds 108 gallons because 432.4 divided by 4 is 108.1. One half full tank would hold about 54 gallons (54.05 to be exact) because half of 108.1 gallons (a full tank) is 54.05 gallons.
