Me i dont understand this ! worth 20pt a ball is thrown with a slingshot at a velocity of 100 ft/sec at an angle 21 above the ground from a height of 5ft approximately how long does it take for the ball to hit the ground? acceleration due to gravity is 32 ft/s^2

It takes approximately 6.3 seconds to hit the ground.

We use the equation h(t)=-1/2gt²+v₀t+h₀ to set this up.  g is the acceleration due to gravity, v₀ is the initial velocity and h₀ is the initial height:
h(t) = -1/2(32)t² + 100t + 5
h(t) = -16t² + 100t + 5

We will use the quadratic formula to solve this:


Since a negative amount of time makes no sense, the answer is 6.3.

3x+9+4x+x=8x+9that's the answer for your question.
