1 worker = 30 hours a week
1 worker = 30 x $5.50 a week = $165
1 worker = $165
1000 workers = 165 x 1000 = $165 000
16x + 40y.....GCF is 8
8(2x + 5y) <==
Um division divide the letters
Factoring, you have
h(t) = -16(t^2 -2 -8) = -16(t -4)(t +2)
The ball hits the ground when h(t) = 0, so
0 = -16(t -4)(t +2)
t = 4 or -2
The positive solution is the one of interest.
It will take 4 seconds for the ball to hit the ground.
