Question 91096
A toy rocket is shot vertically upward from the ground. Its distance in feet from the ground in t seconds is given by H(t)=-16t^2(squared) + 197t. At what time or times will the ball be 124 feet from the ground?
---------------
EQUATION:
-16t^2+197t = 124
16t&2-197t+124 = 0 
t = [197+-sqrt(197^2-4*16*124)]/32
t = [197+-175.707]/32
t = 0.665 seconds and again at 11.65 seconds
