a bastetball is passed through the air. The height h of the ball in feet after the distance d in feet the ball travels horizonta

Ksenya-84 [330]

You want the (positive) distance when the height is 0, 0= -d^2 + 10d +5. You would factor that out(You'd get radicals), and the final answer would be 5±30−−√ You'd take the only positive one of the two, 5 + srt(30) I hope I did that right :/
