Problema Solution

after a baseball is hit, the height h (in feet) of the ball above the ground t seconds after it is hit can be approximated by the equation h(x)=-16x^2+96x

Answer provided by our tutors

Since part of the text is missing we assume that we need to determine how long it will take for the ball to hit the ground.

The ball hits the ground when h(x) = 0 for some x > 0, that is:

-16x^2+96x = 0

x = 6 s

The ball will hit the ground after 6 seconds.
