Answer:

20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Lance the alien is 5 feet tall. His shadow is 8 feet long. At the same time of day, a tree's shadow is 32 feet long. What is the height of the tree?

We solve this using proportion of

Height/ Shadow

= 5/8 = x/32

Cross Multiply

8x = 5 × 32

x = 5 × 32/8

x = 20 feet

The height of the tree is 20 feet

H = 151t - 16t²

The height of the ball when it return to the ground will be 0
0 = 151t - 16t²

The zero product property is that when two numbers are being multiplied and the product is 0, one of them must be equal to 0. Therefore, we can factorize this equation:
16t² - 151t = 0
t(16t - 151t) = 0
By the zero product property:
t = 0   or  16t - 151 = 0

So t = 0 or t = 9.44 seconds

The first solution is before he releases the ball and the second is when the ball comes back to the ground. Thus, the ball's air time is 9.44 seconds.

Can anyone answer this for me?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

y = 2 - x^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

x^{2} results in a parabola (U-shape). Adding a negative in front of it flips the parabola to look like an upside-down U.

The 2 makes it shift up two decimal spots to (0,2).
