Physics Problem requires me to solve using quadratic formula, need help.

[Gl4di4tor]

4.90t^2+5.00t-200=0

Anybody know how to solve this?

 

[Fenixgoon]

you answered your own question: quadratic formula. plug and chug

 

[FleshLight]

Your equation = ax^2+bx+c

Quadratic formula = (-b +/- sqrt(-b^2-4ac)/2a

Plug and chug knowing that time is a scalar quantity.

Start your own business, you won't need to learn all that.

You constantly post that and I figured out why. You're an Amway salesman with no formal education!

 

[imported_alp]

ax^2+bx+c=0

x=[-b+-(b^2-4ac)^1/2]2a (hard to show like this)

The ANSWES would be 5.89890153 and -6.919309693

It looks to me that you have some serious trouble with your math if you can't solve that.
