I see that this is a quadratic equaion and it has been a while sense I have taken algebra 1.... I don\'t know how to solve for t3...

-2^-1 t3^2 - 180 s t3 + t3^2 = a^-1 (Vo (180 s) - 1,100 m + Xo)

how do I solve this for t3

the 3 is a subscript to t
180 s is 180 seconds and is considered one term
Vo is one term
Xo is one term
- 1,100 m is one term and is - 1, 100 meters

1 answer

by the way i realized i could just graph the two equations...

were
a = .20

Vo = 5.494

but how do I write it for t3
