transmit signals that carry pictures, data, music and conversations invisibly over long distances and have been the basis for almost all non-written communication and most wireless technologies used by humans today.

A) acceleration. this seems to be the one that makes sense.

If one were to put the y value into the equation, they could find out what x is for a certain value of y.  putting in the value of y (1), we get the equation: 1=4x-12=4xx=0.5this means that the value of x when why is 1 is x=0.5

The object's initial distance above the groundthe object's initial velocity

Distance covered, s = 8ft - 4ft = 4 ftinitial velocity, u = 34 ft/sthe acrobat is moving upwards and therefore, a = -g = -9.81 m/s^2 = 32.19 ft/s^2applying equation of motion; s = ut -1/2gt^2then,4 = 34t -1/2*32.19t^24 = 34t - 16.095t^2rearranging; -16.095t^2 + 34t - 4 = 0solving the quadratic equation; t = {-34 +/- sqrt [34^2 - 4(-16.)]}/2(-16.095) = 1.06 +/- 0.93 = 0.13 or 1.99the acrobat will take 0.13 seconds to be at 8 ft above the ground. additionally, once at the maximum height, the acrobat will move down and be at the same spot (that is height) after 1.99 seconds moving down.
