\n" ); document.write( "In 1981 Vladimir Poliakov set a world record of 19ft3/4in for the pole vault. To reach that height, Poliakov obtained a speed of approximately 36 ft per second on the runway. The formula h = -16t + 36t gives his height t seconds after leaving the ground. Use the formula to find the exact values of t for which his height is 18ft.
