It is equal to 825 sticks total
Absolute values are a way of finding a distant from zero, which means there will be 2 answers; one will be positive, and the other will be negative.
|<em>3x - 4</em>| = 5<em>and</em> |3<em>x - 4</em> = a^5 Because you need 2 answers, you have to make 5 positive and negative.
Another way to write this equation would be...
5=|3x-4|=—5
Now lets continue...
5=3x-4=—5
Add 4 to both sides...
9=3x=—1
Now divide by 3...
3=x= -1/3
So the solution is...
X={-1/3 3}
Given
s=16t^2
where
s=distance in feet travelled (downwards) since airborne with zero vertical velocity and zero air-resistance
t=time in seconds after release
Here we're given
s=144 feet
=>
s=144=16t^2
=>
t^2=144/16=9
so
t=3
Ans. after 3 seconds, the object hits the ground 144 ft. below.
Answer: The second option
Step-by-step explanation: 14mph times 5 equal 70. 5 hours after 6 am is 11 am. 70 divided by 20 is 3.5. 3.5 hours after 6 am is 9:30. Hence 9:30 to 11
