They can not, there are only 2 sides and they probably flipped it different ways. They got 'lucky'.
Given
s=16t^2
where
s=distance in feet travelled (downwards) since airborne with zero vertical velocity and zero air-resistance
t=time in seconds after release
Here we're given
s=144 feet
=>
s=144=16t^2
=>
t^2=144/16=9
so
t=3
Ans. after 3 seconds, the object hits the ground 144 ft. below.

B) 19/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage population of graduates = 5
Proportion of graduates from 100 random samples = percentage × number of samples
Proportion of graduates = 0.05 × 100 = 5
Probability of having 5 graduates among the 100 random samples:
P(1 graduate) = possible outcome / total required outcome
P(1 graduate) = (5 / 100) = 1/20
P(5 graduates) = (1/20)^5
P(5 graduates) = 1/3200000
Probability of never being a graduate = (1 - probability of being a graduate)
Probability of never being a graduate = ( 1 - (1/20)) = 19/20
If the triangles are similar, the proportion of the legs on the left to the legs on the right will be equal. This proportion would look like:

(You needed to combine the orange segment and the yellow segment to find the total length of the large triangle).
Now, cross multiply and solve for x:
28x+14=30x
<em>*Subtract 28x from both sides to isolate the variable*</em>
14=2x
<em>*Divide both sides by 2*</em>
7=x
Hope this helps!!
