H(t)=-16t^2+1221 is the function for the height as a function of time.  It will hit the ground when h=0 so:

-16t^2+1221=0

16t^2-1221=0

16t^2=1221

t^2=1221/16

t=√(1221/16) seconds

t≈8.74 seconds  (to nearest hundredth of a second)

S=16t^2
1221=16t^2
1221/16=t^2
square root of 76.3=t
t=8.7

If 10 miles is about 16 kilometers and the distance between two towns is 45 miles,use a ratio table to find the distance between
erastovalidia [21]
First, you want to find out how many kilometers are in one mile. So you take the information you are given and divide 16 km by 10 and you get 1.6 km/1mi. Now, you know that the distance between the two towns is 45 miles, so simply multiply 1.6 by 45 to get 67.5 km in 45 mi.
