You can put this solution on YOUR website! The height of a soccer ball after being kicked is given by the function h(t)=-16t^2+48t. How many seconds after being kicked will the ball hit the ground?
---------------
It's at ground level when h(t) = 0
-16t^2 + 48t = 0
Solve for t
-----------
There are 2 times, t = 0 at launch, and at impact.
