A ball is kicked 4 feet above the ground with an initial vertical velocity of 55 feet per second. The function h(t)=−16t2+55t+4 represents the height h (in feet) of the ball after t seconds. Using a graph, after how many seconds is the ball 30 feet above the ground? Round your answers to the nearest tenth.

I would like to know both the answer and the steps to get there please. Thank you!

Given:

A ball is kicked 4 feet above the ground with an initial vertical velocity of 55 feet per second.

The function represents the height h(in feet) of the ball after t seconds.

We need to determine the time of the ball at which it is 30 feet above the ground.

Time:

To determine the time that it takes for the ball to reach a height of 30 feet above the ground, let us substitute h(t) = 30, we get;

Adding both sides of the equation by 16t², we get;

Subtracting both sides of the equation by 55t, we have;

Let us solve the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula, we get;

The value of t is t = 0.6 because this denotes the time taken by the ball to reach a height of 30 feet from the ground.

Therefore, the time taken by the ball to reach a height of 30 feet above the ground is 0.6 seconds.

step-by-step explanation:

54 km / hours

step-by-step explanation:

we need to convert seconds to hours

60 seconds = 1 minutes

60 minutes = 1hour

15 m         60 second   60 minutes

  * *         = 54000 meters/ hour

second     1 minute             1 hour

now we need to convert meters to km

1000 m = 1 km

54000 m       1 km

*   = 54 km / hours

hour               1000m
