Question 297057: A soccer ball is kicked from the ground, and its height, h, is given by the function h(t)= -16t^2+80+. How many seconds will it take the soccer ball to hit the ground?
The "^2" means to the 2nd power, just so it wouldn't be confusing.
And the 16t the "t" is the letter. After ^2 the + is a plus and the t after 80 is the letter T. Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! h(t)= -16t^2+80t
should be your equation
set it to zero
t=5 and t=0
it falls back at 5 seconds
