Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the elevation h (in feet) of the balloon modeled by the function h(x)=−6x+330, we can calculate the time it takes the balloon to reach the ground. The hot air balloon hits the ground at h(x) = 0.

Substitute h(x) = 0 into the modeled expression and find x as shown;

h(x)=−6x+330

0 = −6x+330

6x = 330

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 330/6

x = 55 seconds

Hence the hot air balloon hits the ground after 55 seconds
