Answer:
1) 2x = x + 15
Step-by-step explanation:
The two parallel lines and one bisecting line makes these two angles equal so you can set the values equal to each other to solve for x
To solve for the time an object takes to hit the ground, the equation
<em>y</em> <em>= y₀ + v₀t + ½gt²</em>, or just <em>0 = y₀ +½gt²</em> since there is no initial velocity and the final y position is 0 (since it is on the ground). Therefore, <em>t = (−2y₀/g)^½.</em>
(-2*60/-9.8)^½ = 3.50 seconds.

Relax. Take deep breaths. Feel the fresh air flowing down to your toes.
It's only some lame math. It can't scare you, because you have a brain
and you know how to use it.
You need to find the Patriots' score. You don't know what it is yet, so
let's give it a label. I've got a brilliant idea ! Let's call it 'P' !
What do we know ?
We know that the Patriots won the game, so we know that the Giants'
score was less than 'P'.
How much less was it ? The question tells us that the difference in
their scores was 20. So the Giants scored P-20 in the game.
What else do we know ? The question tells us the sum of the scores.
OK. Let's addum up:
Patriots' score: P
Giants' score: P - 20
Sum of the scores: P + (P - 20) = 2P - 20
The question tells us that their sum was 44.
OK. 2P - 20 = 44
That's an equation. Solve it for 'P' and you'll have the answer.
Add 20 to each side: 2P = 64
Divide each side by 2: P = 32
There you are. The Patriots scored 32.
The Giants scored 20 less ... (32 - 20) = 12.
The sum of their scores was (32 + 12) = 44.
Everything checks out.
20 I apologize if this is wrong
