[Answered] The height $h$ (in feet) of an object $t$ seconds after it is dropped can be modeled by the quadratic equation $h=-16 t^2+h_0$, where $h_0$ is the initial height of the object. Suppose a small rock dislodges from a ledge that is 255 ft above a canyon floor. Solve the equation $h=-16 t^2+255$ for $t$, using the quadratic formula to determine the time it takes the rock to reach the canyon floor. A. $t \approx 0.87 s$ B. $t \approx 4 s$ C. $t=8.5 s$ D. $t=16 s

[tex]$\lim _{x \rightarrow-2}\left[\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}-7\right]=-10$[/tex] B. [tex]$\lim _{x \rightarrow-2}\left[\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}-7\right]=5$[/tex] C. [tex]$\lim _{x \rightarrow-2}\left[\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}-7\right]=-1$[/tex] D. [tex]$\lim _{x \rightarrow-2}\left[\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}-7\right]=-4$[/tex]
