A quarterback throws an incomplete pass. The height of the football at time t is modeled by the equation h(t) = â€"16t2 40t 7. Rounded to the nearest tenth, the solutions to the equation when h(t) = 0 feet are â€"0. 2 s and 2. 7 s. Which solution can be eliminated and why? The solution â€"0. 2 s can be eliminated because time cannot be a negative value. The solution â€"0. 2 s can be eliminated because the pass was not thrown backward. The solution 2. 7 s can be eliminated because the pass was thrown backward. The solution 2. 7 s can be eliminated because a ball cannot be in the air for that long due to gravity.
