Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem you need the function
h(t) = -16t2 + v0t + h0
where t = time
v0 is the initial velocity, which in our case is 0
h0 = initial height, which in our case is 256
h(t) = 0 since we want to know when the ball will hit the ground.
0 = -16 t2 + 256
And we can solve for t
If we rearrange the terms we see that this is a difference of 2 squares
0 = 256 - 16t2
0 = (16-4t)(16+4t)
Setting each factor = 0
16-4t=0 16+4t=4
t = 4 t = -4
The second solution is discarded as time cannot be negative.
So the ball will hit the ground in 4 seconds.
I have summer school work too omg!!! it’s annoying
The given expression is:
(x/2) + 5
Let's look at each terms separately:
x/2 means that you you're getting half the value of a number
+5 means that you are adding 5
Combining both, you can conclude that you are adding 5 to half a certain given number.
Comparing this with the choices, the correct choice would be:
C. five more than half a number.
