Answer:

The distance of the playground is 540m

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the length of the playground given the information in the question.

Where to attack the question from is the segment that states that he took a break after 480m and also had 2 breaks. Thus, the distance traveled would be 480 * 2 = 960 m

Now, to find the length of the track, we add the distance covered plus the distance uncovered. Mathematically that would be 960m + 120m = 1,080m

In the last part of the question, we are told that the track is twice as long as the playground. This means that the length of the playground or the distance of the playground is 1080/2 = 540 m

An object is launched from a platform. Its height (in meters), xxx seconds after the launch, is modeled by: h(x)=-5x^2+20x+60h(x
EastWind [94]
It takes 6 seconds for it to hit the ground.

0 = -5x²+20x+60

We can solve this by factoring.  First factor out the GCF, -5:

0 = -5(x²-4x-12)

Now we want factors of -12 that sum to -4.  -6(2) = -12 an -6+2 = -4:
0 = -5(x-6)(x+2)

Using the zero product property, we know that either x-6=0 or x+2=0; this gives us the answers x=6 or x=-2.  Since we cannot have negative time, x=6.
