Consider the distance formula d=16t^2 , where d is the distance in feet that an object travels and t is the time in seconds that it travels. How long does it take an object to travel 544 feet?

A . √34
B. 34
C. √136
D. 136

Answer:

[tex]\sqrt{34}[/tex] is the time required to travel 544 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to question, the distance formula is given as follows:

[tex]d=16t^{2}[/tex]

where d is the distance in feet that an object travels and t is the time in seconds that the object travels.

So, if an object travels 544 feet that means d= 544 feet.

Substituting value of [tex]d=544 feet[/tex] into the equation,

[tex]544=16t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]544/16=t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]34=t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{34}=t[/tex] which is the required answer
