18x + 8x = -3
26x = -3
x = -3/26
Answer:
Assuming that v0 represents the initial velocity, then v0 = 96 ft/s. Substitute this value into h(t) and set the equation equal to 48. Then, write this quadratic equation in standard form, which is ax² + bx+ c = 0, where a, b, and c are constants. Either use factoring or the Quadratic Function to solve the equation for t. Remember that t must be positive, because it represents a unit of time.
