It takes 6 seconds for it to hit the ground.
0 = -5x²+20x+60
We can solve this by factoring. First factor out the GCF, -5:
0 = -5(x²-4x-12)
Now we want factors of -12 that sum to -4. -6(2) = -12 an -6+2 = -4:
0 = -5(x-6)(x+2)
Using the zero product property, we know that either x-6=0 or x+2=0; this gives us the answers x=6 or x=-2. Since we cannot have negative time, x=6.
I'm pretty sure it has to have 1 over any number
Answer:
x = 5 
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
So, to answer this problem, I'll use the reverse method.
31 - 4 = 27,
So how many times, can 5 go into 27?
The closest factor of 5 to 27 is 25.
5 can go in to 27, 5 times.
Continuing on, there is a 2 left over, so the answer to your question is
x = 5 
5 · 5
- 4 = 31
Let me know if I am incorrect and I will attempt to find the right answer for you.

XLVIII or 48.3. Im not sure if its right and you may want to double check with other answers.
The formula for finding time is the distance divided by the velocity.So the answer is 100÷30=3.3333...
