Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
h = -16^2 + 116t + 101
h' = -32t + 116 = 0
t = 116/32 = 3.625 seconds to reach max height
max h = -16(116/32)^2 + 116(116/32) + 101 = 311.25 feet
It hits the ground when h=0 = -16t^2 +116t + 101
t = -116/-32 + (1/32)sqr(116^2+4(16)(101)) = 8,036 seconds
305 = -16t^2 + 116t + 101
-16^2 + 116t - 204 = 0
t = 3.625 + or - (1/32)sqr(116^2 -4(16)(204)) = 3 or 4.25 seconds at 305 feet
at 3 seconds it's 305 feet and going up, at 4.25 seconds it's 305 feet on the way down
time above 305 feet is 4.25-3 = 1.25 or 1 1/4 seconds
