A ball thrown vertically upward from the ground. Its distance in feet from the ground in t seconds is s=-16t^2+128t. After how many seconds will the ball be 192 feet feom the grounds in seconds?
SOLUTION:
s=-16t^2+128t
192 = -16t^2+128t
16t^2 - 128t + 192 = 0
t^2 - 8t + 12 = 0
(t -2)(t - 6) = 0
After 2 seconds the ball be 192 feet feom the grounds
Also at the time of return , After 6 seconds the ball be 192 feet feom the grounds
