Mathematics
1 answer:
lesantik [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The ball will reach the ground when h=0.

Set the equation equal to 0.

0=-8(2 t-4)(t+1)

t=-1,2

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of a golf ball after it has been hit from the top of a hill can be modeled by the equation

h=-8(2 t-4)(t+1),

where h is the height in feet and t is time in seconds.  

When ball will reach the ground the distance between ball and ground is 0. So, the ball will reach the ground when h=0.

To find the time it takes for the ball to reach the ground,  set the equation equal to 0 and use the Zero Product Property to solve for $t$.

h=-8(2 t-4)(t+1)

\Rightarrow 0=-8(2 t-4)(t+1)

Solve the equation using the Zero Product Property.

2t-4=0\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{4}{2}=2

t+1=0\Rightarrow t=-1

So, t=-1,2

0.4(2x-9)-0.6(4x+5)=
masha68 [24]

Answer:

From what I can comprehend I believe the answer is <em>3.2x + -4</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

0.4(2x-9) = 0.8x - 9

0.8x - 9 - 0.6(4x+5)=

0.8x - 9 + 2.4x+5

0.8+2.4 = 3.2x

-9 + 5 = -4

3.2x + -4
