    The solutions are t = 0 and t = 1. Since starting time is 0, the arrow is in the air for 1 second.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Set the equation equal to zero.

    -2t (8t - 8) = 0

    Apply the Zero Product Property.

    -2t = 0 or 8t - 8 = 0

    Solve each equation for t.

    t = 0 or 8t = 8

    t = 1
