Answer:

The object will hit the ground after <u>9 seconds</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The height 'h' of an object varies with time 'x' as:

h(x)=-5(x+1)(x-9)

Now, we are asked to find the time 'x' when the height reaches ground after launch.

So, the height of the object on reaching ground will be 0 m. So, substituting 0 for 'h' and solving for 'x', we get:

0=-5(x+1)(x-9)\\\\\frac{0}{-5}=(x+1)(x-9)\\\\(x+1)(x-9)=0\\\\x+1=0\ or\ x-9=0\\\\x=-1\ or\ x=9

Therefore, there are two values of 'x' for which height is 0. The negative value is ignored as time can't be negative.

So, the value of 'x' is 9 seconds.

Hence, the object will hit the ground after 9 seconds.
