You can put this solution on YOUR website! An arrow is shot vertically upward from a platform 35 ft. high at a rate of 201 ft. per sec. When will the arrow hit the ground?
--------------------------
Height Formula::: h(t) -16t^2 + vot + so
------
The height, when it hits the ground, is zero.
------------
Solve -16t^2+201t+35 = 0
------
Ans: t = 12.73 seconds
