Answer:

t = -2.566s and -1.169s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the ball expressed at

h(t) = 5t²+14t+3

The ball will hit the ground at h(t) = 0

Substitute and get t

0 = 5t²+14t+3

Use general formula

t = -14+/- √14²-4(5)(3)/2(5)

t = -14+/- √196-60)/10

t = -14+/- √136/10

t =-14+/- 11.66/10

t = -25.66/10 and -2.338/2

t = -2.566s and -1.169s

Hence the ball will hit the ground at these times
