Question

super easy, but keep getting like .5 which didn't seem right. here it is: 1350= -4.9t^2 + 250t

Answer 1

I've been working with quadratic equations all night... and hating it!

I came up with 6.13857 using the quadratic formula.

If your math class is like mine, you'll need to show how you got your answer, so here's a link to the quadratic formula if you need it:

Good luck!

Answer 2

If you substitute 0.5 in, it won't work at all. If you are trying the quadratic formula, make sure you have all terms on the same side of the equation. A "t "value around 6 looks more likely.
