Kyle stood on a bridge and threw a rock up and over the side. The height of the rocks in meters can be approximated by approximated by -5t^2+5t+24, where T is the time in seconds after car through it completely factor the expression

The factorized expression is (-5) × (t - 2.747) ×(t - 1.747)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is -5·t² + 5·t + 24

To factorize the expression by completing the square method, we equate the expression to zero to get;

-5·t² + 5·t + 24 = 0

WE divide by -5 to get;

t² - t - 24/5 = 0

t² - t = 24/5

t² - t + 1/4 = 24/5 + 1/4

(t - 1/2)² = 5.05

t - 1/2 = ±√5.05

t = 1/2 + √5.05, 1/2 - √5.05

The factorized expression becomes;

(t - 1/2 + √5.05) and (t - 1/2 - √5.05)

Which gives;

(t - 2.747) ×(t - 1.747)

The factorized expression is (-5) × (t - 2.747) ×(t - 1.747).
