Verifying Trajectory Height Milestones
A safety technician is reviewing a trajectory report for an object launched with a height modeled by the function , where is height in feet and is time in seconds. The technician notes that the object is at a height of 160 feet at the moment of launch (). According to the provided mathematical analysis, at what other time (in seconds) does the object reach a height of 160 feet?
