The ball takes approximately a time of 2.041 seconds to reach its maximum height.
<h3>What time does the ball take to reach maximum height?</h3>
The height of the ball as a function of time is modelled by a <em>quadratic</em> equation, the required information can be found by transforming the expression into <em>vertex</em> form:
h = - 4.9 · t² + 20 · t + 12
h = - 4.9 · (t² - 4.082 · t - 2.449)
h + (- 4.9) · (6.615) = - 4.9 · (t² - 4.082 · t + 4.166)
h - 32.414 = - 4.9 · (t - 2.041)²
The ball takes approximately a time of 2.041 seconds to reach its maximum height.

Answer
-10
Step-by-step explanation:
-8w-7=9
add 7 to both sides
-8w=16
divide by negative 8 on both sides
w=-2
w-8=-10
