A soccer player heads a ball from a height of 6 feet with an initial vertical velocity of 20 feet per second. The height h in fe

et of the ball is given by h=-16^2+20t+6 where t is the time elapsed in seconds. How long will it take the ball to hit the ground if no other players touch it?

WE see that at time t=0 the ball's height is 6 feet so we know the origin of our coordinates is the ground (h=0 feet)  So we need to solve this quadratic equation for the value of t that makes the equation 0.   There will be 2 solutions, one will be right and the other is usually impossible (all quadratics have two roots)
Using the quadratic formula (google it if you're unfamiliar, Brainly's math editor doesn't show things like that too nicely) I get t = 1.5s.  (the other root is -0.25)

PLS HELP !!! U WILL GET 13 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST !!THIS IS A TEST AND I NEED TO SHOW WORK PLS PLS HELP AND ONLY ANSWER IF U KNOW

Answer:

This should be parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are said to be parallel only if their slope matches. They are said to be perpendicular only if the slopes are negative reciprocals.

Here, you should put both equations in slope intercept form which is y=mx+b. The letter "M" represents the slope of both equations.

2y-6=3x+4 turns into 2y=3x+10 after adding 6 and into y=3/2x+5 after dividing the equation by 2. The slope for this equation is 3/2.

8y=12x+8 must be divided by 8 to be in slope intercept form. This equation becomes y=3/2x+1. Here the slope is also 3/2.

The slopes for each equation match making these lines parallel.
