Since the width is the smaller value, make the width=x. That would make the length=2x-3. Area=length*width. Substitute your variables and known values into the equation. 14=(2x-3)(x). Distribute the x to give you 14=2 x^{2} -3x. Set the equation equal to 0 giving you 2 x^{2} -3x-14=0. Factor the equation to give you (2x-7)(x+2)=0. Set each factor equal to 0 and solve. 2x-7=0 gives you x=7/2 & x+2=0 gives you x=-2. Since we're working with lengths and widths, the answer cannot be negative. Therefore, your width equals 7/2. To find the length, substitute 7/2 into the original expression for length (2x-3). That gives you 2*(7/2)-3=7-3=4. The length is 4.

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

5 seconds it will hit the water.

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-16t²+400

add -16t² to both sides

-16t²=-400

divide both sides by 16

t²=-25

t=√25

t=5
