If the apple is on the ground, then the height y is 0. To find t, just plug in 0 for y:
0=-16t^{2}+120
-120=-16t^{2}
t^{2} =7.5
t=2.74

So the answer is 2.74 seconds.

Note that taking the square root of 7.5, mathematically, gives you both 2.74 and -2.74. But because we know that time did not go backwards, only the positive value for t was considered.

Answer:

2nd option will be the answer (y=4x²+48x+146)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=4(x+6)²+2

y=4(x²+2*x*6+6²)+2 [(a+b)²=a²+2ab+b²]

y=4(x²+12x+36)+2

y=4(x²)+4(12x)+4(36)+2

y=4x²+48x+144+2

y=4x²+48x+146
