Amir stands on a balcony and throws a ball to his dog, who is at ground level.The ball's height (in meters above the ground), x seconds after Amir threw it, is modeled by How many seconds after being thrown will the ball hit the ground?

Respuesta :

Answer:

6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of second would be

In the case when the ball would hit the ground, the ball height would be zero

So the following equation would be

[tex]0 = -(x -2)^2 + 16\\\\(x -2)^2 = 16\\\\x - 2 = \sqrt{16}\\\\x -2 = 4\\\\x = 6[/tex]

So the number of seconds is 6
