If a ball is thrown upward at 96 feet per second from a height of 12 feet, the height of the ball can be modeled by S=12+96t- 16t² feet,

where t is the number of seconds after the ball is thrown. How long after the ball is thrown is the height 152 feet?
It takes seconds for the ball to reach the height 152 feet.

Answer:

2.5 & 3.5

Explanation:

152 = 12+96t- 16t²

140+96t- 16t²=0

152 = 12+96t- 16t²

4t²-24t+35=0

(2t-7)(2t-5)=0

t = 2.5 & 3.5
