Answer:

equate f(x) to zero to find the time t

-16t² +13.4t +120 = 0

Using the quadratic formula

t = -b ± √b² - 4ac/2a

a = -16t b = 13.4 c = 120

t = -13.4±√(13.4)² - 4(-16)(120)/-32

= -13.4 ± √ 7859.56/-32

t = - 2.35 or t = 3.19

Since time is positive

t = 3.19s

Hope this helps.

Answer:

-16t² + 13.4t + 120

= ( t-3.189)(t+2.352)

t = 3.189s or t = -2.352s (ignore)

ignore -2.352s because time cannot be in negative form

In the figure, b and c are parallel lines. Which of the following statements are true?
Helen [10]

Answer:

1. No, Joe is not correct

2. \angle 5=72^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: b and c are parallel lines

To find:

1. whether the given statement is correct or not

2. \angle 5

Solution:

1.

Sum of two angles that form a linear pair is equal to 180^{\circ}

\angle 3+72^{\circ}=180^{\circ} (linear pair)

\angle 3=180^{\circ}-72^{\circ}=108^{\circ}\neq 90^{\circ}

So, Joe is not correct

2.

If two lines are parallel then alternate interior angles are equal.

As b and c are parallel lines,

\angle 5=72^{\circ} (alternate interior angles)
