Answer 1

Answer:1.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

1.97

Step-by-step explanation:

The arrow will hit the ground when the height is 0. We need to solve the quadratic equation:

$-16x^{2} +30x+3=0$

Solving the quadratic equation gives two solutions −0.10 and 1.97 because we know the answer should be a positive number of seconds we can conclude that the object will hit the ground at 1.97 seconds.
