Right now that equation is a function of time, h(t), height with respect to time. If the baseball is on the ground, it has no height. In other words, its height = 0. So if we set the equation equal to 0 and solve for t, time, that will tell us the time that the ball had a height of 0. If you plug those numbers into the quadratic formula, which is the best and most efficient way to factor a quadratic, you will get that the times are -.0615528128 and 4.061552813 seconds. The 2 things in math that will never EVER be negative are time and distance/length. So we know that the ball will not hit the ground at -.062 seconds. Therefore, it hits the ground 4.06 seconds after it was hit.
Angle Z is greater than angle Y.
I hope this helps you! I'm not the best at this kind of stuff!

Answer:15
Step-by-step explanation:
27+x=42 alternate angles are equal
Collect like terms
x=42-27
x=15
Part A-For marigold plants X, a geometric sequence has a general form of:
X = Xo * (1 + r)^n
where r = -15% = -0.15 (negative since it is decreasing)
Xo = the initial amount of marigold plants = 150
X = 150 * (1 – 0.15)^n
X = 150 (0.85)^n
