*radius is half diameter (or you can say) diameter is double of radius
* diameter is longer than the chord
*the longest chord is diameter
When the ball hits the ground, the height is 0.
0 = 100 - 16t²
0 = (10 - 4t)(10 + 4t)
0 = 10 - 4t or 0 = 10 + 4t
4t = 10 or -4t = 10
t =
or t = 
Time cannot be negative (unless you have a time machine) so disregard 
Answer: t =
= 2.5 seconds
The slope is 3/1
hope this helps
Remember
if ab=0, then assume that a and b equal 0
factor out common term
comon term in 6x^2 and 15x is 3x
3x(2x)+3x(5)=0
3x(2x+5)=0
set each to zero
3x=0
x=0
2x+5=0
2x=-5
x=-5/2
x=-5/2 and 0
