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>

For every prime p &gt; 3, 12|(p2 − 1).
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Proved

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that for every prime p>3 12 divides p^2-1

Proof:

Consider p^2-1=(p+1)(p-1)

Since p is prime p cannot be even.  When p is odd, we have p+1 and p-1 as even number.

This gives us the both p+1 and p-1 are divisible by 2, hence product is divisible by 4

To prove the term is divisible by 3:

We have p-1,p, p+1 as consecutive integers hence any one must be divisible by 3.  Since p is prime only either p-1 or p+1 is divisible by3

Hence we have product is divisible by 3 and 4

i.e. 12 divides p^2-1, for all prime p >3

The perimeter of a scalene triangle is 14.5 cm. The longest side is twice that of the shortest sidd.which equation can be used t
Likurg_2 [28]
Let S, M, L represent the shortest, mid-length, and longest sides, respectively. You are given three bits of information.
.. S +M +L = 14.5 cm
.. L = 2S
.. L = 6.2 cm
You can use an equation something like this to find the middle-length side.
.. (6.2 cm)/2 +M +6.2 cm = 14.5 cm
.. M +9.3 cm = 14.5 cm . . . . . . . . . . . . . constant terms collected
.. M = 5.2 cm . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 9.3 cm

Now, you know the side lengths are 3.1 cm, 5.2 cm, 6.2 cm.
