For this, we will be using the quadratic formula, which is
, with a=x^2 coefficient, b=x coefficient, and c = constant. Our equation will look like this: 
Firstly, solve the multiplications and the exponents: 
Next, do the addition: 
Next, your equation will be split into two:
. Solve them separately, and your answer will be
A
substitute x = 3h into f(x)
f(3h) = 2(3h)² + 3(3h) - 4 = (2 × 9h²) + 9h - 4 = 18h² + 9h - 4
They created ratios so people could get information.
Answer:
The height is 0 when it "drops".
3/2x + 9 = 0
3/2x = -9
3 = -9(2x)
3 = -18x
3/-18x
Change signs, time cant be negative.
x= 6
Another interpretation; Slope is negative it is falling. This interpretation is more accurate.
-3/2x + 9 = 0
-3/2x = -9
-3 = -9(2x)
-3 = -18x
6 = x
