"how long..." is asking for time (t). "The amount of time spent in the air" is the time from when the ball was kicked (0 seconds) to the time it landed on the ground. Need to find the x-intercepts (one will be negative which will be invalid). You can do this by factoring ... <em>or by using the quadratic formula.</em> With the equation you provided, it is not factorable, so you must use the quadratic formula.
h = -16t² + 60t + 3
a=-16 b=60 c=3
or 
or 
t = -0.05 or t = 3.8 <em>disregard the negative</em>
Answer: 3.8 seconds
this is kinda easy and im gonna assume that the 4 is a exponent cuz f(2)=2(3)^4 then f=81
length of pipe= 30m
Inside dia. = 1.2m
Outside dia. = 1.8m
Volume of concrete= (outside dia. - inside dia.)h
V= (pi)
v= [(3.14*0.9*0.9)-(3.14*0.6*0.6)]30
v= (3.3534-1.1304)30
v=(2.233)30 = 66.690m cube
since it's volume the answer 66.690 is in cubic meters.
That is a 30 60 90 triangle.

Answer:
x = 8*root3
y = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use tangent and cosine of 60° to find x and y, BUT THERE'S A SHORTCUT. You pointed out that its a 30°-60°-90° triangle. That is a special right triangle. Here's the shortcut:
the longest side (hypotenuse) is double the shortest side. We have an 8 on the shortest side, so the hypotenuse (longest side) is 16. This ALWAYS works for 30°-60°-90° triangles!
Another shortcut:
The longer leg is the shorter leg × root3.
This ALWAYS works on 30°-60°-90° triangles.
So on your triangle, the short side is 8, that means the longer leg is 8×root3.
ta-daaaa!
