Aball is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 32 feet per second. the distance s (feet) of the ball from the ground after t seconds is s equals 32t-16t^2. at what time t will the ball strike the ground? for what time t is the ball more than 12 feet above the ground

a) t =2 sec

b)  t = 0.5 sec

Explanation:

Given data:

a) set s=given equation to zero and solve for t:

s = 32t - 16t^2

0 = 32t-16t^2

32t = 16t^2

32 = 16 t

t = 2 seconds

b) set given equation equal to 12 and solve for t:

s = 32 t -16t^2

12 = 32t-16t^2

12 = 32t-16t^2

t^2 -2t + 0.75 = 0

t = 1.5, 0.5

hence t = 0.5 sec is right answer

answer; the above statement is (true);

their visual appeal is a sure hook into their content. but big books are also produced for pedagogical reasons, and using them in the classroom makes good teaching sense. an abundance of good children's literature in their lives is vitally important for young children as they strive toward independent reading.
