The value of $y$ is $\boxed{y = 8}.$

Further explanation:

Use always PEDMAS rule to solve the grouping of multiplication, addition, subtraction and division.

Here, P is parenthesis, E is exponents, M is multiplication, D is division, A is addition and S is subtraction.

Given:

The expression is $24 = 3y.$

Explanation:

The distributive property can be expressed as follows,

$\boxed{x \cdot \left( {y + z} \right) = x \cdot y + x \cdot z}$

The given expression is $24 = 3y.$

The common factor of 3 and 24 is 3.

Divide the expression $24 = 3y$ by 3 to obtain the value of $y$ .

$\begin{aligned}\frac{{24}}{3}&= \frac{{3y}}{3}\\\frac{{24}}{3} &= y\\8 &= y\\\end{aligned}$

The value of $y$ is $\boxed{y = 8}.$

Alright, so for AB and CD to be parallel, CX and DX would have to be equal, as is with AX and BX. In addition, for CD and AB to be parallel, all sides in both triangles are either equal or not all sides in even one triangle are equal. Therefore, CD is not 3. In addition, two sides of a triangle combined must be greater than the third, so that leaves 5, 4, and 2 for CD. If it was 5, that would mean that all sides are equal, so that leaves 4 and 2. However, I don't see anything to prove either one right, sorry:/

So for this, we will have to find the zeros (x-intercepts) of the equation. In this case, we will be using the quadratic formula, which is $x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a},\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ (a = x^2 coefficient, b = x coefficient, c = constant). Using our info, our equation is such: $x=\frac{-3+\sqrt{3^2-4*(-16)*4}}{2*(-16)},\frac{-3-\sqrt{3^2-4*(-16)*4}}{2*(-16)}$

Firstly, solve the multiplications and the exponents: $x=\frac{-3+\sqrt{9+256}}{-32},\frac{-3-\sqrt{9+256}}{-32}$

Next, do the addition: $x=\frac{-3+\sqrt{265}}{-32},\frac{-3-\sqrt{265}}{-32}$

Next, plug in the equations into the calculator and your answer will be: $x=-0.41,0.60$

Since we can't have negative time in this situation, it can't be -0.41 seconds. Which means that the object is visible for about 0.60 seconds, or C.
