The discriminant is b^2 -4ac
a = 1
b = -2
c = 4
discriminant = 4 -4 * 1 * 4 =
4 -16 =
-12
I get MINUS 12 as the answer but that isn't one of the choices.
Answer:
=1
Step-by-step explanation:
2(9)-(2)=8
18-2=8
9=8
9-8
=1
Im pretty sure this is the answer
I apologize, but we would need the chart included below the questions to be able to answer this.
Answer:
The height of the ball after 3 secs of dropping is 16 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
height from which the ball is dropped = 160 foot
Time = t seconds
Function h(t)=160-16t^2.
To Find:
High will the ball be after 3 seconds = ?
Solution:
Here the time ‘t’ is already given to us as 3 secs.
We also have the relationship between the height and time given to us in the question.
So, to find the height at which the ball will be 3 secs after dropping we have to insert 3 secs in palce of ‘t’ as follows:


h(3)=160-144
h(3)=16
Therefore, the height of the ball after 3 secs of dropping is 16 feet.
