The height h (in feet) of an object t seconds after it is dropped can be modeled by the quadratic equation

h = -16t2 + h0, where h0 is the initial height of the object. Suppose a small rock dislodges from a ledge that is 255 ft above a canyon floor. Solve the equation h = -16t2 + 255 for t, using the quadratic formula to determine the time it takes the rock to reach the canyon floor.

t ≈ 0.87 s

t ≈ 4 s

t = 8.5 s

t = 16 s
the answer is t ≈ 4 s
