Question 886813: Please help me solve this problem: If an object is projected upward with an initial velocity of 112 feet per second from a height h of 128 feet, then its height t sec after it is projected is defined by the equation h=-16t^2+112t+128. How many sec after it is projected will it hit the ground?
