A model rocket is launched with an initial upward velocity of 204 ft/s. The rockets height “h” (in feet) after “t” seconds is given by the following.
H=204t-16t squared
Find l values of “t” for which the rockets height is 100 ft.
=======================
h(t) = -16t^2 + 204t = 100
= -16t^2 + 204t - 100 = 0
Solve for t
