SOLUTION: If a ball is tossed into the air from height of 6 feet with a velocity of 32 feet per second, then its altitude at time t ( in seconds) can be described by the fuction A(t)=-16t^

Question 174214: If a ball is tossed into the air from height of 6 feet with a velocity of 32 feet per second, then its altitude at time t ( in seconds) can be described by the fuction
A(t)=-16t^2+32t+6 Find the altitude of the ball at 2 seconds.
Now with this problem what I set this equation to zero?

You don't set anything equal to 0 in this case. You are given an equation that relates altitude to time. Then you are given a time and asked to find the altitude at that time
find A when t=2

The ball is 6 feet off the ground. It started at 6 feet (time =0), went up, peaked and is coming down. At 2 seconds, the ball is at the same height as time 0
