Homer states that his rocket fell for 14 seconds and estimatesthat the rocket’s altitude was 3000 feet. Use the formula to find the actualdistance, in feet, that the rocket fell during that time.

The actual distance is 3153.33 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The time taken by rocket to fell =  14 seconds.

The altitude of rocket was = 3000 feet.

Since the given time is 14 seconds and with this time we have to calculate the actual height or distance in feet from where the rocket fell.

Use the below formula to find the distance in feet.

Therefore, the actual distance is 3153.33 ft.

the image is given below

since the options are not given so we draw it from the equation

the given equation is

y = (x-1) (x+4)

y = y² + 3x - 4

the above equation is a quadratic equation which will have two roots. if we draw the graph for it, it will look like this
