It takes 6 seconds for it to hit the ground.

0 = -5x²+20x+60

We can solve this by factoring.  First factor out the GCF, -5:

0 = -5(x²-4x-12)

Now we want factors of -12 that sum to -4.  -6(2) = -12 an -6+2 = -4:
0 = -5(x-6)(x+2)

Using the zero product property, we know that either x-6=0 or x+2=0; this gives us the answers x=6 or x=-2.  Since we cannot have negative time, x=6.

Plug in the values for x and y to check.

-6>8-10
-6>-2

Final answer: False
This is because -6<-2. Remember that for negative numbers, the number with the greater absolute value is less.
