Please help me solve for y! 126-y=90

The height of a flare fired from the deck of a ship in distress can be modeled by h(t)= -2(8t^2-52t-28), where h is the height of the flare above water and t is the time in seconds. a. find the time it takes the flare to hit the water.

Simplify. (-2)^-3 a. -8 b. -1/8 c. 1/8 d. 8

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation. if necessary, round to the nearest hundredth. x^2 - 20 = x a. 5, 4 b. -5, -4 c. -5, 4 d. 5, -4
