Question

A batter hits a baseball upward with an initial speed of 96 feet per second. After how many seconds does the ball hit the ground? Use the formula h = rt − 16t2 where h represents height in feet and r represents the initial speed. ...?

Answer 1

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The guy above is correct

Answer 2

ht = 96 t - 16t^2

96t - 16t^2 = 0 (divide all with 16)

6t - t^2 = 0

t (t-6) = 0

t = 6

Hope this helps
