h = -16t^2 + 112t
---
the t-intercepts of this eqn are its quadratic roots:
---
the above quadratic equation is in standard form, with a=-16, b=112, and c=0
---
to solve the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula, plug this:
-16 112 0
into this: https://sooeet.com/math/quadratic-equation-solver.php
---
the roots of the quadratic are:
t = 0
t = 7
---
the quadratic vertex is a maximum at: ( t= 3.5, h(t)= 196 )
