y=-5t^(2)+2t+20 x=2t A cannonball is shot out of a cannon at a 45^(@) angle with an approxiate speed of 283m/s. The cannon from which the ball was fired sits on the edges of a cliff, and its height above the ground is 20 meters. The equations given above represent the cannonball's height above the ground(y) and its horizontal distance (x) from the face of the cliff, t seconds after the ball was fired, where tge0 . How many seconds after the ball was fired does its vertical height above the ground equal its horizontal distance from the cliff?
