Answer:

9 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem. One of the most common Pythagorean triples is 3, 4, 5 with 3 and 4 the legs and 5 the hypoenuse. That will make 9, 12, 15 anotther trible because you are tripling the side lengths. 12-9=3 so this triangle works.

" A projectile is launched in the air according to the equation h(t)= -16t^2 + 125t + 5. At what time does the projectile land?"
Vlad1618 [11]
"according to the equation is a sloppy description, and announces that whoever said it or wrote it doesn't really have a clue to what the equation means or what it's good for.

h (t) is the HEIGHT of the projectile above the ground at any time 't'. When the projectile hits the ground, h (t) is zero. Write that ! Then you have a quadratic equation that you can easily solve for 't'.
