A zombie steps off a 35-foot wall by mistake, landing in the river below. How long will it take the zombie to fall?

Answer 1

the zombie falls 16t^2 feet in t seconds. So, just solve for t:

16t^2 = 35

Answer 2

How did you get 16t^2?

Answer 3

it's the standard distance formula for a falling object. If you haven't learned that yet, it's time to review the section. No way they would have asked that question if you hadn't covered the topic.
