Answer:

t = 4 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

[tex]h(t)=-16t^2+48t+64[/tex]

where:

  • h = height of the ball (in feet)
  • t = time (in seconds)

When the ball hits the ground, its height will be 0 ft.

Therefore, set the function to zero and solve for t:

[tex]\begin{aligned}h(t) &=0\\ \implies -16t^2+48t+64 & =0\\ -16(t^2-3t-4)& =0\\ t^2-3t-4 &=0\\ t^2+t-4t-4&=0\\ t(t+1)-4(t+1)&=0\\(t-4)(t+1)&=0\\ \implies t&=4, -1\end{aligned}[/tex]

As time is positive, t = 4 s (only).

Hello There!!

Given

[tex]h = - 16 {t}^{2} + 48t + 64[/tex]

Where:- h= Height of ball (given in feet[ft]) and,

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎t= time (in seconds [s])

To find:-

Time = (t)

Solution

We know,

[tex] \text{When the ball hits the ground its height will be 0}[/tex]

[tex] \therefore h(t) = 0[/tex]

[tex] \implies - 16 t^{2} + 48t + 64 = 0 \\ \\ \fbox{taking - 16 as common multiple} \\ \\ \implies - 16(t {}^{2} - 3t - 4) = 0 \\ \\ \implies t {}^{2} - 3t - 4 = 0 \\ \\ \fbox {factorising the \: equation} \\ \\ \implies t {}^{2} - t - 4t - 4 = 0 \\ \\ \implies t(t + 1) - 4(t + 1) = 0 \\ \\ \implies(t - 4)(t + 1) = 0[/tex]

[tex] \tt{Either} \\ t - 4 = 0 \\ t = \red{ 4 } \\ \\ \tt{Or} \\ t + 1 = 0 \\ t = \red{ - 1}[/tex]

We know, Time cannot be negative.

So, Time (t) = 4 seconds
