Identify function and value: Identify the given function and the value we need to find.We are given the function h(t)=−10t+6 and we need to find the value of ′t′ when h(t)=−44.
Set up equation with given value: Set up the equation with the given h(t) value.We need to solve the equation −10t+6=−44.
Isolate term with 't': Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with 't'.−10t+6−6=−44−6This simplifies to −10t=−50.
Solve for 't': Divide both sides of the equation by −10 to solve for 't'.−10t/−10=−50/−10This simplifies to t=5.
