Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value of -12 is 12 so both numbers are equal.
have a nice day :)

Answer:
1. 5 seconds
2. 4.5 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Both of these questions can be solved the same way. Each quadratic gives height as a function of time. You're interested in the time at which the height is zero. Factor the quadratic and find the positive value of x that makes the relevant factor be zero.
__
1) y = -15x(x -5)
x = 5 makes the second factor zero
The golf ball is in the air 5 seconds.
__
2) y = -12x(x -4.5)
x = 4.5 makes the second factor zero
The football is in the air for 4.5 seconds.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The "zero product rule" tells you a product will be zero if and only if one or more of the factors is zero. When a factored quadratic (or any other polynomial) is zero, one of the factors must be zero. If the factor is of the form (ax+b), then the corresponding solution is ...
ax+b = 0 ⇒ ax = -b ⇒ x = -b/a
That is, once you have the factored form, you can write the solutions "by inspection."
A) 13/52 = 1/4
b) 4/6 = 2/3
