7.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

think of it as a triangle; the bold line is the hypotenuse, or x.

 8   |\   x

      |_\              it's not a good triangle but you get the point

       6

and then get out pythagorean theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2

put the numbers in: 8^2 + 6^2 = x^2

do some math:

64+36=x^2

100=x^2 (and then find square root)

10=x

BUT, it said each unit was 3/4 of a mile, so we must multiply 10 by 3/4 to get the actual distance, which is 7.5

the rocket cannot penetrate the ground, in a contextual sense, therefore the roots of this equation should be the domain of this function. i'll let you find the roots of this quadratic equation (hint: use the quadratic formula:  

1- c

2-a
