Question

Todd and his brother Robert are going to use 512 square feet of their backyard for skateboard ramps. The shape of the backyard is rectangular, with the length twice as long as the width. What are the dimensions of the backyard?

Answer 1

An object is thrown off a 256-foot-tall building, and the distance of the object from the ground is measured every second. The function that models the height, h, of the object after t seconds is h(t) = –16t2 + 96t + 256. Determine the time when the object hits the ground.

Answer 2

The first answer is 512=2w^2 and the width is 16 and the length is 32
