Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

B) the stone hits the water within the first 2 seconds. Because the stone drops at the speed of 88 feet/second, and 88 x 2 is 176. but the bridge is only 135 feet tall.

so,

88 feet/second

176 feet/2 seconds

135 feet means that it reached the river within 2 seconds. it reached the river in 1.545 seconds

~~~~~~\textit{initial velocity in feet per second} \\\\ h(t) = -16t^2+v_ot+h_o \quad \begin{cases} v_o=\textit{initial velocity}&88\\ \qquad \textit{of the object}\\ h_o=\textit{initial height}&135\\ \qquad \textit{of the object}\\ h=\textit{object's height}\\ \qquad \textit{at "t" seconds} \end{cases} \\\\\\ h(t)=-16t^2+88t+135

does it hit the water, hmmm when?  well, it does when h = 0, check the picture below.

~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{quadratic formula} \\\\ \stackrel{h(t)}{0}=\stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{-16}t^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+88}t\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{+135} \qquad \qquad t= \cfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt { b^2 -4 a c}}{2 a} \\\\\\ t= \cfrac{ - (88) \pm \sqrt { (88)^2 -4(-16)(135)}}{2(-16)}\implies t=\cfrac{-88\pm\sqrt{16384}}{-32} \\\\\\ t=\cfrac{88\mp 128}{32}\implies t= \begin{cases} -\frac{5}{4}\\\\ \frac{27}{4} \end{cases}

well, we can do away with the negative value since "t" ⩾ 0, and only keep the 27/4.

does it hit the water within 2 seconds? well 27/4 = 6.75, so 6 seconds and some change, so nope, it took longer.

The complete square will be  (x-3)^{2} = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

2x^{2} -12x+12=0

or, x^{2} -6x+6=0 [ by eliminating 2 from both the sides]

To make it square

x^{2} -6x+6=0

or, x^{2} -2xX3+9-9+6=0 [ (a+b)^{2}=a^{2} +2ab+b^{2}

or, (x-3)^{2} = 9-6

or, (x-3)^{2} = 3

Hence the correct option is B
