Answer:

  D)  3.50 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

You are interested in the positive value of t such that h=0. Substituting 0 for h, we get ...

  0 = -16t^2 +56t

  0 = -16t(t -3.5) . . . . . factored form

The product is zero when the factors are zero. Here, the factor of interest is ...

  0 = t-3.5

  3.5 = t . . . . . add 3.5 to both sides

The ball takes 3.5 seconds to return to the ground.
