Problem 5
Evaluate each algebraic expression for the given value or values of the variable(s). $$x^{2}+3 x, \text { for } x=8$$
Problem 19
A football was kicked vertically upward from a height of 4 feet with an initial speed of 60 feet per second. The formula $$h=4+60 t-16 t^{2}$$ describes the ball's height above the ground, \(h,\) in feet, \(t\) seconds after it was kicked. Use this formula to solve Exercises \(19-20 .\) What was the ball’s height 2 seconds after it was kicked?
Problem 37

Problem 48
In Exercises \(45-54,\) rationalize the denominator. $$\frac{\sqrt{7}}{\sqrt{3}}$$
Problem 53
Factor each perfect square trinomial. $$4 x^{2}+4 x+1$$
Problem 66
Factor completely, or state that the polynomial is prime. $$5 x^{3}-45 x$$
Problem 68
