Answer:

3 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are figuring out when the water balloon will hit the ground, y will need to be equal to 0.

0 = - 16t² - 16t + 96

Now we simply factor the trinomial to find t.

0 = -16(t² - t - 6)

0 = (t - 3)(t + 2)

t - 3 = 0 ⇒ t = 3

t + 2 = 0 ⇒ t = -2

Since we are referring to time, we need to use the positive value. Therefore, the water balloon will take 3 seconds to hit the ground.

A recipe calls for 1.5 cups of raisins for 18 cookies how many cups of raisins must be used for making 30 cookies. please break
Zanzabum

Lets list what we know:

1.5 cups = 18 cookies

How many cups in 1 cookie will help us find the answer:

1.5 / 18     (1.5 cups per 18 cookies)

divide both sides by 1.5 (to get how many cookies in 1 cup)

1 / 12        (1 cup = 12 cookies)

Now, how many times does 12 fit in 30?

30/12 = 2.5

This means it takes 2 and a half cups of raisins to get 30 cookies.

If anything is still unclear please comment,

Hope this was helpful

Have a great day!
