Answer:The object will hit the ground after 5 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given height of tower =80 ft
h=-16+64t+80
When the object will hit the ground its height=0
0=-16+64t+80
Multiplying both sides by -1
16t²-64t-80=0
Dividing by 16 both sides
t²-4t-5=0
(t-5)(t+1)=0
t=5 or -1
So t=5 since time cannot be negative
The object will fall after 5 seconds
