If an average-sized man with a parachute jumps from an airplane, he will fall 12.5(0.2^t-1) +20t feet in t seconds. How long will it take him to fall 140 feet? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

All you need to do is this:

140 = 12.5( 0.2t -1) + 20t            can you solve this for 't' ?
