A projectile is launched straight up from ground level with an initial velocity of 320 ft/s.
o When will the projectiles height above ground be 1538 feet?
Solution: s = -16t2 + 320t + 0 = 1538
Graph in calculator and look for intersection points
t = 8.031 seconds, 11.969 seconds
o When will the projectiles height above ground be at most 1538 feet?
Solution: [0, 8.031] U [11.969, 20]
When will the projectiles height above ground be greater than or equal to 1538
feet?
Solution: [8.031, 11.969]
