A basketball shot is taken from a horizontal distance of 5m from the hoop. The height of the ball can be modelled by the relatio

This is the concept of application of quadratic expressions. Given that the height of the ball is modeled by the equation;
h=-7.3t^2+8.25t+2.1+5
The time taken for the ball to hit the ground will be given as falls;
-7.3t^2+8.25t+7.1=0
to solve for t we use the quadratic formula;
t=[-b+/-sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/(2a)
a=-7.3, b=8.25, c=2.1
t=[-8.25+/-sqrt[8.25^2+4*7.3*7.1]/(-2*7.3)
t= -0.572
or
t=1.702
since there is not negative time we take the time taken for the ball to hit the ground will be: t=1.702 sec
