Answer:

4 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

h=-16t^2+64t

where, h is height in feet of a golf ball above the ground after being hit into the air and t is the number of seconds elapsed since the ball was hit.

We need to find the time for the ball to hit the ground.

At ground level the height of ball is 0, i.e., h=0.

-16t^2+64t=0

-16t(t-4)=0

Using zero product property, we get

-16t=0\Rightarrow t=0

t-4=0\Rightarrow t=4

Therefore, it will take 4 seconds for the ball to hit the ground.

Suppose you bought a pizza for $8.00. You also bought a salad but you can not remember how much you paid and you can not find th
Darina [25.2K]
The best equation would be A.

with A you get to calculate what is the value of $. 

8 + $ = 10 (10 is the total value of your receipt and 8 is the price of pizza)
$ = 10 - 8 (we transfer the price of pizza on the other side to the total amount of your receipt and calculate the remaining amount)
$ = 2

We see that the remaining amount is 2$, which means the salad cost s2$ :)
