Asked by Jason Luv

Aaron Judge is at bat and finds a Dellin Betances fastball heading his way. Judge hits the fastball when it is 3 feet off the ground. After it is hit, the height h (in feet) of the ball is modeled by h(t) = -16t2 + 95t + 3, where t is the time (in seconds). How long will it take for the ball to hit the ground? Round to the nearest hundredth.

it hits the ground when the height is zero, right? So just solve
-16t^2 + 95t + 3 = 0
in the usual ways.
