You can put this solution on YOUR website!
after 3 seconds, t=3 and 2 would be most efficient, although 1 is not bad.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the time it hits the ground is when -16t^2+64t=0, so when (t-4)=0 the equation is solved.
\n" ); document.write( "this is 16t^2-64t=0
\n" ); document.write( "16t(t-4)=0 or -16t(t-4)=0 and t=4 seconds so 3 is for B\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "estimate when football is 40 feet high would be when -16t^2+64t-40=0, and the first equation would be solved as a quadratic and be most efficient so 1 for C
