Solving the quadratic equation, it is found that it will take 8.5 seconds for the frisbee to hit the ground.
It is given by:
h(t) = -0.07t² + 0.007 + 5.
Which is a quadratic function with coefficients a = -0.07, b = 0.007, c = 5.
It hits the ground when h(t) = 0. Hence, the solution is found as follows.
[tex]\Delta = (0.007)^2 - 4(-0.07)(5) = 1.400049[/tex]
[tex]x_1 = \frac{-0.007 + \sqrt{1.400049}}{2(-0.07)} = -8.4[/tex]
[tex]x_2 = \frac{-0.007 - \sqrt{1.400049}}{2(=0.07)} = 8.5[/tex]
It will take 8.5 seconds for the frisbee to hit the ground.
