Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
complex roots always occur in pairs and are conjugate of each other.
second root=5-6i
( put the values )
From the given information we can write the equation:
-16t^2 +96t + 4 = 112
-16t^2 + 96t + 4 - 112 = 0
-16t^2 + 96t - 108 = 0
simplify, change the signs, divide by -4
4t^2 - 24t + 27 = 0
You can use the qudratic formula but this will factor to
(2t-3)(2t-9) = 0
Two solutions
t = 3/2
t = 1.5 seconds at 112 ft on the way up
and
t = 9/2
t = 4.5 seconds at 112 ft on the way back down
Graphically, (green line is 112 ft)
4/12 chance of dying
