Answer 3

x = 5; the diver jumps in the pool at 5 feet per second

x = 10; the diver jumps in the pool at 10 feet per second

x = 10; the diver hits the water 10 feet horizontally from the board

x = 5; the diver hits the water 5 feet away horizontally from the board

Answer 4

its one of the x=5 please help
