I NEED HELP...NOW I CANNOT GET THIS!
A cliff diver dives off a cliff 40 feet above water. Write an equation giving the diver's height H (in feet) above the water after t seconds. How long is the diver in the air?

Respuesta :

1. h = 40 - 16t^2
 0 = 40 - 16t^2
  16t^2 = 40
 t^2 = 5/2
 t = √(5/2) ≈ 1.58 sec
