A bomber aircraft flying at 15 m/s at an altitude of 180 m dropped a bomb. The parabolic trajectory of the falling bomb is described by the x² equation y = 180 - until it hits the ground, where y is its height above the ground and x is the horizontal distance traveled in meters. Calculate the distance traveled by the bomb from the time it is dropped until the time it hits the ground. Round your answer into a whole number. Box only the numerical value of the answer. 45
