The diver will hit the water when the height is zero, so we will want to set our height function equal to zero
0 = -4t^2 + 11t + 3
we will then factor to find out value of t that make the function equal to zero
0 = (-4t - 1 ) ( t - 3 )
This means our function equals zero when t = -1/4 s and t = 3 seconds
Since time cannot be negative, our final solution is t = 3 seconds

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When the diver hits the water the height, h(t), becomes zero.  We set h(t) equal to zero and solve the resulting equation for t:

h(t) = -4t^2+ 11t + 3 = 0

The coefficients of this quadratic equation are {-4, 11, 3}, and so the discriminant (needed in the quadratic formula) is -11 - 4(-4)(3) = 47.

                                            -11 ± √37               11 + √37            11 - √37

Therefore the roots are t = --------------, or t = ------------- or t = ---------------

                                                  -8                          8                        8

Both of these results are positive.  Picture the graph as one opening down and intersecting the x-axis in two places.  The diver hits the water (and h becomes zero) at the later time:

       11 + √37

t = ---------------- sec (a little over 2 sec)

              8

Please help me i have no clue what the answer is :?

Answer:

1. Yes

2. They could change the 60° angle into a different one.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Two triangles are the same if they share two side lengths with the same angle between them.

2. Since the triangles are equal if they share two side lengths with the same angle between them, if they changed the angle between 3 and 5, it'd no longer be the same triangle.

Math brainiest NEEDED. its the bottom half and please explain your answer
Mice21 [21]
1) The expressions are not equivalent. When you expand and multiply 2(x + 3) it becomes 2x + 6. This is not equal to 3x + 5

2) They are equivalent. Again, expand and multiply the second expression. 2(3n + 4) becomes 6n + 8. This makes both sides equal.

3) They are equivalent. In the parentheses, you are adding 3 y's and a 2. This gives you 3y + 2. Now add the additional 3y that follows the closed parentheses. You'll have 6y + 2. Now both sides are equivalent.
