A . r^(3-1) = 18
a . r^2 = 18...... (i)
a . r^(6-1) = 486
a . r^5 = 486 ...... (ii)
dengan membuat perbandingan dari kedua persamaan diperoleh:
r^2/r^5 = 18/486
1/r^3 = 1/27
r^3 = 27
r = akar pangkat 3 dari 27
r = 3
dari persamaan <span>a . r^2 = 18...... (i)
a . 3^2 = 18
a . 9 = 18
a = 18/9 = 2</span>
GFC is 8. Use a tree of 88 and 48. 88= 2^3 x 11 or 2 x 2 x 2 x 11
48=2^4 x 3 or 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 see how many groups count as the number once and multiply and bam GFC. Hope I helped! (:
Since x is the number of seconds it took the rock to hit the water, x is the value that we are looking for. When the rock hits the water, it's height is 0, therefore, f(x) = 0. So, we can set the expression on the right equal to 0, and solve for 0. Let's do just that:

We can divide by -16, nothing will happen because 0 divided by anything is 0:

To factor any trinomial in standard form (given below), we must find two numbers that add to "b" and multiply to "c":

So, for this specific question, let's find two numbers that add to -8 and multiply to 9. These are clearly 9 and -1. We can write it in this way now:

Both answers would be valid, but there can't be negative time, so your answer is
"It takes 9 seconds for the rock to reach the water."
