Ahhh bet your a female right?
Answer: a = 3
Step-by-step explanation: when you multiply 6 by -3 you get -18 and if you add 16 you get -2
so the slope is -3 and the y-intercept is 16
so a*-3 + 16 = 7
by subtracting 16 on both sides you get
-3a = -9
and to get a by itself you divide -3 on both sides
a = -9/-3
a= 9/3
a = 3
When it hits the ground, then h=0
find the xintercept or in this case the tintercepts
c=76
v=135
h=-16t^2+135t+76
use quadratic formula
ax^2+bx+c=0
x=

a=-16
b=135
c=76

x=-0.5297 or 8.967
exclude the negative root since you can't have negative time
means that it takes 8.97 seconds to hit the ground
