Answer:
The diver will be 8 feet from the end of the board when he hits the water.
Step-by-step explanation:
The diver hits the water when y = 0.
To find the distance, we have to find the values of x when y = 0.
Solving a quadratic equation:
Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:
.
This polynomial has roots 
such that 
, given by the following formulas:
In this problem, we have that:
So
Then
It is a horizontal distance, so the answer is a positive value.
The diver will be 8 feet from the end of the board when he hits the water.

Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
a rectangular prism (like this brick) has the same basic structure as a cube (like a die) : it has 6 sides.
while a die has 6 equal sides, a rectangular prism has 3 pairs of equal sides :
top and bottom
left and right
front and back
all we have to do is calculate the areas of the 6 rectangles and add them up. that's it.
your remember, the area of a rectangle is
length × width
in our case we have
top and bottom : 2.5×11.5 × 2 = 28.75×2 = 57.5 in²
left and right : 2.5×5 × 2 = 12.5×2 = 25 in²
front and back : 11.5×5 × 2 = 57.5×2 = 115 in²
so, the total surface area of the whole block is
57.5 + 25 + 115 = 197.5 in²

Answer:
s ≥ 60
Step-by-step explanation:
If Scott earned 20 points more on this test, then he earned 20 points less on the last test. 20 points less than "at least 80" is "at least 60."
s ≥ 60
