On a vacation in Puerto Rico, Rose jumped off a cliff into a river in EL Yunque Forest Reserve. Her height as a function of time

could be modeled by the function h(t)=-16t^2 + 16t + 480, where t is the time after jumping in seconds and h is the height in feet. How many seconds did it take Rose to hit the water? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth

H(t) = -16t² + 16 t + 480

Factor out -16
-16(t² - t - 30) 
t² - t - 30 
(t + 5)(t - 6) ⇒ t(t-6) + 5(t-6) ⇒ t² -6t + 5t - 30 ⇒ t² - t - 30

t + 5 = 0           t - 6 = 0
t = -5                t = 6

The value of t is either -5 or 6 however time can't be measured in negative form; then, it took Rose 6 seconds to hit the water.

The answer is A. 14h + 11d

because if you 3d and 8d it will give you 11d

the take 24h and subtract to 10h it will give you 14h

so when you write it you answer is 14h + 11d
