Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find out how long it takes for the rocket to hit the ground, we only need set that position equation equal to 0 (that's how high something is off the ground when it is sitting ON the ground) and factor to solve for t:
Factor that however you are factoring in class to get
t = -3.1 seconds and t = 25.9 seconds.
Since time can NEVER be negative, it takes the rocket approximately 26 seconds to hit the ground.
