Answer:

The object hits the ground in 5 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An object is launched at 9.8 meters per second from 73.5 meter tall platform. The objects height s (in meters) after t seconds I’d given by the equation s(t)= -4.9t^2-9.8t+73.5.

To find : Use the factoring to determine when the object hits the ground ?

Solution :

When the object hits the ground the distance is zero.

i.e. s(t)=0

So, -4.9t^2-9.8t+73.5=0

Applying quadratic formula, x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Here, a=-4.9, b=-9.8 and c=73.5

t=\frac{-(-9.8)\pm\sqrt{(-9.8)^2-4(-4.9)(73.5)}}{2(-4.9)}

t=\frac{9.8\pm\sqrt{1536.64}}{-9.8}

t=\frac{9.8\pm 39.2}{-9.8}

t=1\pm 4

t=1+4,1-4

t=5,-3

Reject t=-3

Therefore, the object hits the ground in 5 seconds.

Mai uses Triangle A and says the slope of this line is `\frac{6}{4}.` Elena uses Triangle B and says no, the slope of this line
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

I agree with both of them because they are both correct

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for complete question;

Slope (m) is calculated using the following formula:

m = \frac{Rise}{Run}

Where

Rise = Vertical\ Distance

Run = Horizontal\ Distance

From the attachment, we have the following:

Triangle A

Rise = 6\ units

Run = 4\ units

So:

m = \frac{Rise}{Run}

m = \frac{6}{4}

<em>In this case, Mai is correct:</em>

Triangle B

Rise = 1.5\ units

Run = 1\ units

So:

m = \frac{Rise}{Run}

m = \frac{1.5}{1}

m = 1.5

<em>In this case, Elena is also correct:</em>
