Answer:

The pumpkin is not in the air

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is

g(t)=2+23.7t-4.9t^2

Let us find when the pumpkin will reach the ground

0=2+23.7t-4.9t^2\\\Rightarrow -49t^2+237t+20=0\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{-237\pm \sqrt{237^2-4\left(-49\right)\times 20}}{2\left(-49\right)}\\\Rightarrow t=-0.08,4.91

So, the pumpkin will reach the ground at 4.91 seconds. Hence, at 8 seconds the pumpkin will reach the ground.

<h2>OR</h2>

At t=8\ \text{s}

g(8)=2+23.7\times 8-4.9\times 8^2\\\Rightarrow g(8)=-122\ \text{m}

The height of the pumpkin is negative 122 m. This means it is lower than the ground. So, the pumpkin is not in the air 8 seconds later.

One of the legs of a right triangle is 9 cm. If the area of the triangle is 225 cm², then the length of the other leg is
ioda

Given:

One of the legs of a right triangle is 9 cm.

The area of the triangle is 225 cm².

To find:

The length of the other leg.

Solution:

The area of a triangle is

Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\times Base\times Height

The area of a right triangle is

Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (leg_1)\times (leg_2)

Let x be the length of other leg.

225=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (9)\times (x)

2\times 225=9x

\dfrac{450}{9}=x

50=x

Therefore, the length of the other leg is 50 cm.
