Refer to the diagram below
The digit as the first decimal place is worth 1/10
The digit as the second decimal place is worth 1/100 which is 1/10 worth the digit as the first decimal place
Example of two decimal numbers:
2.56 and 2.68
The digit 6 in 2.56 is 6/100
The digit 6 in 2.68 is 6/10
The digit 6 in 2.56 is 1/10 as much as the digit 6 in 2.68

If the apple is on the ground, then the height y is 0. To find t, just plug in 0 for y:
So the answer is 2.74 seconds.
Note that taking the square root of 7.5, mathematically, gives you both 2.74 and -2.74. But because we know that time did not go backwards, only the positive value for t was considered.
