You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Just substitute \"t=3\" into \"h%28t%29+=+360+%96+16t%5E2\" to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"h%283%29+=+360+%96+16%2A3%5E2\" --> \"h%283%29+=+360+%96+16%2A9\" --> \"h%283%29+=+360+%96+144\" --> \"highlight%28h%283%29+=+216%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Three seconds after being dropped the ball is 216 feet above the ground.
