Answer: 6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

x refers to time. Since we want to know how long it is in the air, we need to find the time (x) when the ball lands on the ground (y = 0)

0 = -14x² + 84x

0 = -14x(x - 6)

0 = -14x 0 = x - 6

0 = x 6 = x

x = 0 seconds is when the ball was hit

x = 6 seconds is when the ball landed on the ground
