Question

A model rocket is launched from a roof into a large field. The path of the rocket can be modeled by the equation y = –0.04x2+ 8.3x + 4.3, where x is the horizontal distance, in meters, from the starting point on the roof and y is the height, in meters, of the rocket above the ground. How far horizontally from its starting point will the rocket land?
A. 208.02 m
B. 416.03 m
