Step-by-step explanation:
Identity the variable:
Initial Velocity is 35.
Initial Height is 204
Final Height is 0.
What looking for the time.
So we have
[tex]0 = - 16 {t}^{2} + (35)t + 204[/tex]
Use Quadratic Formula,
[tex] - b± \frac{ \sqrt{b {}^{2} - 4ac} }{2a} [/tex]
A is -16, B is 35 , C is 204.
So we have
[tex] - 35± \frac{ \sqrt{ {35}^{2} - 4( - 16)(204) } }{ - 32} [/tex]
[tex] - 35± \frac{ \sqrt{1225 + 2240} }{ - 32} [/tex]
[tex] - 35± \frac{ \sqrt{3465} }{ - 32} [/tex]
[tex]{35} ± \frac{ \sqrt{3465} }{ - 32} [/tex]
The positve solution is
[tex]4.83[/tex]
So the answer is 4.83 seconds
