Answer:

t = 5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

A golfer takes a swing from a hill twenty feet above the cup with an initial upwards velocity of 76 feet per second.

We need to find how long does it take the ball to land on the ground near the cup.

The equation for the path of the ball is given using second equation of kinematics as follows :

-16t^2+76 t+20=0\\\\\text{or}\\\\-4t^2+19t+5=0\\\\-4t^2+20t-t+5=\\\\-4t(t-5)-1(t-5)=0\\\\(t-5)(-4t-1)=0\\\\t=5, t=\dfrac{-1}{4}\ s

Neglecting negative value,

It will take 5 seconds for the ball to land on the ground near the cup.

mina [271]
1. Regroup terms
x(x+5)=104

2. Expand
x^2+5x=104

3. Move all terms to one side
x^2+5x-104=0

4. Factor x^2+5x-104
(x-8)(x+13)=0

5. Solve for x
x=8 or x=-13
Since x<0 is not possible in this case, x=8

6. Finding the dimensions
We know that one side has to be x+5, and now that we know x:
8+5=13
13*8=104

The dimensions are 13 and 8, have a nice day :D
