Former nfl punter ray guy holds the record for the longest hangtime on a punt. if the ball leaves with an upward velocity of 128 ft/s from an initial height of 4 feet, how long will the ball be in the air? use the formula where h is the height of the ball in feet and t is the time in seconds since it is kicked. round your answer to the nearest tenth.

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation

Where,  h is the height of the ball in feet and t is the time in seconds since it is kicked.

The leading coefficient is negative, so it is a downward parabola.

First of all find zeros of given function.

Using quadratic formula we get

So the ball is in the air between t=-0.031 and t=8.031. Since the time can not be negative, therefore the ball is in the air between t=0 and t=8.031.

The ball is in the air for 8.031 second, so option D is correct.

idk the answer i want to say 10 but then it would be equal so try 9 but then yeah so yeah we love edgen
