Question 795557: A baseball is thrown straight upward with an initial speed 64ft/sec. The number of feet, s, above the ground after t seconds is given by the equation, s=-16t^2+64t.
a)When will the baseball be 48 ft above the ground?
b)When will it hit the ground?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! s=-16t^2+64t.
a)When will the baseball be 48 ft above the ground?
s=-16t^2+64t = 48
Solve for t
----------------
b)When will it hit the ground?
s=-16t^2+64t = 0
Solve for t
