Question

a ball is thrown vertically upward from the ground. it's distance in feet from the ground in t seconds is s=-16t+224t. after how many seconds will the ball be 768 feet from the ground? pls help!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

3.692seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

distance s is represented by the following equation s=-16t+224t

given the distance=768ft

replace s by 768 in the equation to find t (time):

768=-16t+224t

768=208t

t=768/208 =48/13 =3.692seconds

Hope this helps :)
