Question 5.
The function given shows represents height after a certain time. The distance measures is initial distance till the distance covered when the time is calculated. The question has given us an initial distance of 100 feet and they want us to calculate the time when the egg hits the ground, or, in other words, 0 feet. So, next, we substitute this information in the equation.
The answer to the question
That is all the work needed to solve this problem
Let s = shadow we are looking for.
40/200 = 25/s
Solve for s.
200(25) = 40s
5000 = 40s
5000/40 = s
125 = s
The answer is 125 feet.
