First error is that the legs are a and b so a should be x and b is 6 and c is 10 the second error is at the end they did not take the square root to get x by itself the real answer should be
X^2 +6^2=10^2
X^2+36=100
X^2 =64
X=8

Answer:
11/4 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see from the given equation that the height at the diving board is h = 3.
This is because the h(t) equation has that +3 at the end, which denotes the initial height of the diver, the height when he is standing on the board before jumping.
To find where h(t) = 3 is true, we need to set h(t) equal to 3 and solve for t.
h(t) = 3
h(t) = -4t^2 + 11t + 3 = 3
-4t^2 + 11t + 3 - 3 = 0
-4t^2 + 11t = 0
t*(-4t + 11) = 0
so h(t) = 3 when t = 0 and when t = 11/4 sec
we already know that at t = 0 the height is 3, it is the initial height given from the equation, so we want to use the other solution for t.
the diver is back at the height of the diving board at t = 11/4 sec
If the length of the short leg is "a" then the length of the long leg should be "2a" and since the point is on the x axis the point is (2a,0) because the y=0
