Answer:

6.64 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Distance between roof of the terminal and ground = 709 feet

A bucket was dropped from the roof.

To find:

The time taken by the bucket to hit the ground?

Solution:

Distance traveled, s = 709 feet

Initial velocity of the bucket, u = 0 feet/sec (because initially it was at rest)

Acceleration of the bucket will be equal to acceleration due to gravity i.e.

g or 32.1741 ft/sec^{2}

Let the time taken is t seconds.

Formula for distance is given as:

s = ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Putting all the values:

709 = 0 (t) + \dfrac{1}{2}(32.1741) t^2\\\Rightarrow 1418 = 32.1741 t^2\\\Rightarrow t^2 = 44.07\\\Rightarrow t \approx \bold{6.64\ sec}

A system of equations is given below.
MAVERICK [17]
First, solve the given system of linear equations.

Second, multiply the first equation by 4 (which was an arbitrary choice).  Add your result to the 2nd equation.

You should now have the following:

First equation:  No change:             <span>2x + 7y = 1

Second equation:  4(</span><span>-3x – 4y = 5) = -12x -16y = 20

Solve this new system of linear equations.  Do you (or do you not) obtain the same solution as your earlier one?</span>
