Question 1144427
.
<pre>
To solve the problem, you need to solve the equation


    h = 300,


which is


    -16t^2 + 240t = 300,    or


    16t^2 -240t + 300 = 0


     4t^2 - 60t + 75 = 0.


Solve it using quadratic formula.

The discriminant   b^2 - 4ac = (-60)^2 - 4*4*75 = 2400 is positive, so you will have two different solutions.


One of them is the time when the body moves up; the other is the time when the body falls down.
