Hello there. I'm having trouble with this problem:
The distance traveled by an object moving in a straight line is given by s=t^2-2t, where s is in feet and t is the time in seconds the object has been in motion. How long will it take the object to move 15 feet (solve to the nearest tenth)?
I'm assuming I set the problem = 0? So, t^2-2t-s=0. From there I am stuck.
