Question

Can -16t2+3t+6 be factored because I'm dealing with vertical motion and we're doing a rocket thing thing. I need to use this to find the total time that the rocket was in the air.

Answer 1

i dont think so unless you want to solve it, and thereby use the quadratic equation

Answer 2

Alright :) Thx

Answer 3

You could also solve by completing the square, but not by factoring it into a product of binomials.
