Jing is going to throw a ball from the balcony of her condo. When she throws the ball from 80 feet above the ground, the function h(t)=−16t2+64t+ models the height, h, of the ball above the ground as a function of time, t. Find: ⓐ the zeros of this function which tells us when the ball will hit the ground. ⓑ the time(s) the ball will be 128 feet above the ground. ⓒ the height the ball will be at t=4 seconds.
