Answer:

3 seconds

Explanation:

Since h(t) represents the height and t represents the time, we can set the equation equal to 150 to find t.

-16t^2+96t+6=150

Subtract 150 from both sides to set the equation equal to 0, to find the solutions.

-16t^2+96t-144=0

Factor out -16, because all of the terms are divisible by it.

-16(t^2+6t+9)=0

Now we can focus on the terms inside the parenthesis and factor it again.

t^2-6t+9=0

We need to find two value that can be multiplied to get 9 and added to get -6.

-3 and -3 works.

Thus, we get (x-3)(x-3).

Now solve for 0.

x-3=0

x=3

The object reaches its maximum height after 3 seconds.

Why does a shirt appear white outside on a sunny day?
Maru [420]
The shirt absorbs the sunlight, so it appears white. All the light is reflected, so the shirt appears white. The sunlight refracts when it hits the shirt, so the shirt appears white.
