A Ball Is Thrown From A Height Of 2 Feet With An Initial Upward Velocity Of 30 class=

Answer :

Given the function:

[tex]h(t)=2+30t-16t^2[/tex]

If the ball's height is 15 feet:

[tex]\begin{gathered} h(t)=15 \\ \\ \Rightarrow2+30t-16t^2=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Solving the quadratic equation for t:
