Question 1098318: A grasshopper jumps off of a tree stump. The height, in feet, of the grasshopper above the ground after t seconds is modelled by the function shown.
-t^2+4/3t+1/4

After how many seconds will the grasshopper land on the ground?

That's not a function.
If you mean
h(t) = -t^2+4/3t+1/4
That's a function, but it's not clear.

Is it h%28t%29+=+-t%5E2%2B4%2F3t%2B1%2F4 ?
Or h%28t%29+=+-t%5E2%2B4%2F%283t%2B1%2F4%29 ?
Or something else?
