F(t) = -5t^2 + 20t + 60
-5(t^2 - 4t - 12)
-5(t + 2) (t - 6)
t = -2 or t = 6

Answer:

6 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a function formula f(t)=-5t^2+20t+60 that models the approximate height of an object  t seconds after it is launched.

To find the number of seconds it will take the object to hit the ground, we need to find the zeros of our given function.

-5t^2+20t+60=0

Upon dividing our equation by -5 we will get,

t^2-4t-12=0

We will factor our given equation by splitting the middle term as:

t^2-6t+2t-12=0

t(t-6)+2(t-6)=0

(t-6)(t+2)=0

(t-6)=0\text{ or }(t+2)=0

t=6\text{ or }t=-2

Since time cannot be negative, therefore, it will take the object 6 seconds to hit the ground.

(10)(11)<br><br> Geometry<br><br> Check Ans<br><br> 10) 5<br> 11) x = 33 y = 38 z = 109
ICE Princess25 [194]
Problem 10

You are correct. You divide 360 over the exterior angle measure to get 360/72 = 5

=========================================================

Problem 11

x = 33 is correct as this angle is an alternate interior angle pair with the 33 degree angle up top

y = 38 is correct since y+33+109 = 180 solves to y = 38. In other words: 38+33+109 = 180

z = 109 is correct. The opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent
