benjamin threw a rock straight up from a cliff that was 24 ft above the water. If the height of the rock h, in feet, after t seconds is given by the equation h= -16t^2 +20t+24, how long will it take for the rock to hit the water
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Solve the quadratic equation for t
= .
and you will know how long will it take for the rock to hit the water.
