-16t^2 + 56t + 4 what is t= seconds when height is 28

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Assuming the equation is as follows:\[h(t) = -16t^2 + 56t + 4 \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then you just need to solve for this: \[h(t)=−16t2+56t+4 = 28\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[16t^2 - 56t + 24 = 0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you solve for t now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got t=3.5 is that correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Check your calculations again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you using the quadratic formula to solve for t?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You should plug the coefficients into the quadratic formula and solve for t.
