Answer:

<em>3 seconds</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question:

<em>An object is dropped from a bridge and allowed to freefall to the ground. The height of the object over time can be modeled using h(t)=144-16t2. How many seconds will it take the object to reach the ground? 2 seconds 3 seconds 9 seconds 16 seconds</em>

<em></em>

Given the height of an object modelled by the expression;

<em>h(t)=144-16t²</em>

The object will reach the ground when h(t) = 0

Substitute into the formula

0 = 144 - 16t²

-144 = -16t²

144 = 16t²

Swap

16t² = 144

t² = 144/16

t² = 9

Square root both sides

√t² = ±√9

t = ±3secs

<em>Since the time cannot be negative, hence the object will reach the ground 3 seconds after</em>

A parallel set of lines are two lines that do not touch one another, but are on the same plane and are equidistant forever. Think about two highways that run next to each other but never touch or cross. CF, therefore, could be parallel to BE, AH, and DG.

2x+22=4(x + 3). Can you help?
enot [183]
First, you will start with distributive property. on the right side you will distribute 4 into x and 3.

the equation will become:
2x + 22 = 4x + 12

then you have to get x on only one side of the equal sign. subtract 2x from 4x and the equation becomes:
22 = 2x + 12

subtract 12 from 22:
10 = 2x

divide 10 by 2:
5 = x
or
x = 5
