The time taken by the rocket will be equal to 7 seconds.
What is an equation?
It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.
The given function is:-
h(x) = -5x² + 25x + 70
Now to find the time put h(x) equal to zero.
-5x² + 25x + 70 = 0
x² - 5x - 14 = 0
x² - 7x + 2x -14 = 0
x ( x - 7) + 2 ( x - 7 ) = 0
( x - 7) ( x + 2 ) = 0
x = 7 and x = -2 ignore negative
Therefore the time taken by the rocket will be equal to 7 seconds.
