B. In step 3
They incorrectly solved for x. It should have been x=-3 and x=5
Answer:
The correct option is;
C. 1,715 m
Explanation:
We are given the information from the group of teen at the City edge
Time of arrival of explosion sound = 5 s after sighting
Time of sighting explosion = 5 s before hearing the boom
Speed of sound in air ≈ 343 m/s
Speed of light = 299,792 km/s
Therefore, distance covered by sound in 5 seconds is given by the following equation;


Hence Distance = 343 m/s × 5 s = 1715 m
To check, we compare the time it would take for the light to cover 1715 m
That is
which is instantaneous hence the distance can be approximated by the time duration for the speed of sound.
Therefore, the distance of the students from the factory is approximately 1,715 m
-is made mostly of hydrogen and helium.
-will eventually run out of fuel and die.
-creates energy through nuclear reactions
The rate of change of object's velocity per unit of time is known as acceleration.
Hope this helps you.

Just divide 12 by 3, so if it takes 3 seconds, then every second, it goes up 4.
