OpenStudy (nikato):

U can substitute h with 22. Then u can use the quadratic equation to solve for t

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hm i tried that i think i messed it up ill try again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i still subtract 22 and set the equation to 0 right

OpenStudy (nikato):

Yes. Ur equation should always equal zero before u should use the quadratic equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-20+37-16t ^{2}\]

OpenStudy (nikato):

*37t

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes does it matter that it is in that order though

OpenStudy (nikato):

When u plug in a=-16 b=37 c=-20

OpenStudy (nikato):

And u should get 2 answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

still comes out weird

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 37+\sqrt{89} }{ -32 }, \frac{ 37-\sqrt{89} }{ -32 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it won't allow me to answer in that format!!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

bottom u shoudl get +32

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

it says to round answers to nearest hundredth.... so you need to enter it in decimal form after rounding to nearest hundredth

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aye thanks @ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

np :) wat do u get for answers after rounding ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.86 and 1.45
