31.
A ball launcher projected a ball directly upward from the ground. The pathway is modeled by the quadratic
equation h = 64 – 8t2 where h is the height reached by the ball at time t in seconds. At what time will the ball strike the
ground?

32.
A projectile motion formula is h = - gt2 + v0t + h0 where h is the height at time t, g is the acceleration due to
gravity, which is 4.9 m/s2 , v0 is the initial velocity, and h0 is the initial height. Is the projectile motion formula a quadratic
equation? Why or why not?
