Find Roots of Quadratics

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 100 ft/s. Its height, h, after t seconds is given by the function
 h = -16t² + 64t + 960.

• 10 seconds

• 2 seconds

• 5 seconds

• 7 seconds

• -2, 4
• -8

True or false:
The solutions, roots, x-intercepts, and zeros of a quadratic equation are all the same thing.

• True

• False, because the solution and root are the same but the x-intercept and zero are different

• False, because the x-intercept and root are the same but the zero and solution are different

• False, they are all different
