Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
-16t^2 + 324t + 14 = 1361
-16t^2 + 324t = 1361-14 = 1347
-16t^2 +324t -1347
t = 324/32 + or - (1/32)sqr(324^2 -48(1347) = (324+ or - 200.8)/32 = about 3.9 or 16.4 seconds
about 4 seconds and it reaches 1347 ft on the way up, then again at about 16 seconds on the way down
it reaches maximum height at about 10 seconds (324/32)
-16t^2 + 324t + 14
set = 0 and solve for t for when it hits the ground
-8t^2 + 162t + 7 = 0
t = 162/16 + (1/16)sqr(162^2 + 32(7)) = (162+163)/16 = 325/16 = about 20.3 seconds to reach the ground
