<em><u>Question:</u></em>
Britney throws an object straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 27 ft/s from a platform that is 10 ft above the ground. Use the formula h(t)=−16t2+v0t+h0 , where v0 is the initial velocity and h0 is the initial height. How long will it take for the object to hit the ground?
1s
2s
3s
4s
<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
It takes 2 seconds for object to hit the ground
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>The given equation is:</u></em>

Initial velocity = 27 feet/sec

Therefore,

At the point the object hits the ground, h(t) = 0

Solve by quadratic formula,

Ignore, negative value
Thus, it takes 2 seconds for object to hit the ground
If the polygons are similar, then the top side is equal to one half of the left side.
Since side (x -1) = 8, then x = 9.
Commutative property of addition
Answer:
B.) There were 15 more questions on the test than the last test.
Step-by-step explanation:
C. â–łADE and â–łEBA
Let's look at the available options and see what will fit SAS.
A. â–łABX and â–łEDX
* It's true that the above 2 triangles are congruent. But let's see if we can somehow make SAS fit. We know that AB and DE are congruent, but demonstrating that either angles ABX and EDX being congruent, or angles BAX and DEX being congruent is rather difficult with the information given. So let's hold off on this option and see if something easier to demonstrate occurs later.
B. â–łACD and â–łADE
* These 2 triangles are not congruent, so let's not even bother.
C. â–łADE and â–łEBA
* These 2 triangles are congruent and we already know that AB and DE are congruent. Also AE is congruent to EA, so let's look at the angles between the 2 pairs of congruent sides which would be DEA and BAE. Those two angles are also congruent since we know that the triangle ACE is an Isosceles triangle since sides CA and CE are congruent. So for triangles â–łADE and â–łEBA, we have AE self congruent to AE, Angles DAE and BEA congruent to each other, and finally, sides AB and DE congruent to each other. And that's exactly what we need to claim that triangles ADE and EBA to be congruent via the SAS postulate.
