The height of an object after it is released can be modeled by the function f (x) = negative 16 t squared + v t + s, where t is the number of seconds after the object is released, v is the upward speed in feet per second at release, and s is the starting height in feet. If a quarterback throws a ball from his hand 6 feet in the air at an upward speed of 25 feet per second, how much time does his teammate have to catch the ball?

Runners run around the school's football field. the cross country coach determines that the width of the field is seventy yards shorter than the length. part a write an expression that represents the perimeter of the football field. let x represent the length of the football field. include parentheses in your expression. next, write an equivalent expression that does not include parentheses. what property or properties did you use to simplify? explain. part b the cross country coach later determines that the length of the football field is 120 yards. all students must run five laps. using your answer from part a, determine the actual number of yards that each athlete must run in the tryouts. in order to make the team, students must complete the laps in 6 minutes. how quickly must they run each lap?
