A ball is dropped from the top of a building that is 250 feet tall. The
height h of the ball in feet after t seconds is modeled by the function h =
- 16t2 + 250. How long will it take for the ball to reach a height of 75
feet? Round to the nearest tenth.

Respuesta :

hi

-16t²+250 = 75

-16t² = 75 -250

-16t² = -175

  t² = -175 /-16

 t² = 175/16

Here there si two solutions :  t = [tex]\sqrt{175/16}[/tex]   and  t =  - [tex]\sqrt{175/16}[/tex]

However, as time cannot rewind,  we will  keep only positive solution

So t = [tex]\sqrt{175/16}[/tex]

   

in seconds  it will be  :  3.3 seconds
