For this case we have the following equation:
h (t) = - 12t2 + 36t
When the object hits the ground we have:
- 12t2 + 36t = 0
We look for the roots of the polynomial:
t1 = 0
t2 = 3
Therefore, the time it takes the object to hit the ground is:
t = 3 s
Answer:
the time when the object hits the ground is:
t = 3 s
I will try i had this unit last year, basically the diameter is 5 in this problem, which you multiply by pi (in this case I will use 3.14 as the shortened version since its on-going) which gives you 15.7, then you multiply that by 3 in this problem to get 47.1!
This is a formula if you need one. DON'T forget to cross-multiply
3/4 = x/12
