A projectile is fired straight up from ground level with an initial velocity of 112ft/s. It’s height, h, above the ground after t seconds is given by h=-16t2+112t. What is the interval of time during which the projectile’s height exceeds 192 feet?

t = 3 s and t = 4 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A projectile is fired straight up from ground level with an initial velocity of 112ft/s. Its height as a function of time t is given by :

We need to find the interval of time during which the projectile’s height exceeds 192 feet. It means put h = 192 feet

So,

The above is a quadratic equation, it can be solved using middle term splitting as follow :

Hence, at t = 3 s and t = 4 s, the projectile’s height exceeds 192 feet above the ground.

okay wait before i answer, is this for your points on a graph?
