8. Example 1 Free-Fall Height An object was dropped from an unknown height and reaches the ground in 5 seconds. From what height was it dropped? Use the equationto replace t with 5 seconds. Original equation Replace t with 5. Multiply each side by 4. Square each side. Simplify. Answer: The object was dropped from 400 feet.

9. Example 2 Solve Answer: The solution is 52. Original equation Subtract 8 from each side. Square each side. Add 3 to each side.

10. Example 3 Solve Original equation Square each side Simplify Subtract 2 and add y to each side Factor. Solve Zero Product Property or Answer: Since –2 does not satisfy the original equation, 1 is the only solution.
