To begin a football game, a kicker has to kick off. The football follows the path h(x)=−130x(x−61) , where h(x) is the height of the football and x is the horizontal distance it has traveled in yards. Solve the equation to determine how far the ball will have traveled when it hits the ground. 0=−130x(x−61) (1 point) The ball will have traveled yards before hitting the ground. Remaining Attempts : 3

To use the Zero Product Property, we set each factor equal to zero and solve for x:

x -3 = 0

To solve for x, we add 3 to both sides of the equation:

x = 3

Therefore, the value that makes the statement true is x = 3.

To find how far the ball will have traveled when it hits the ground, we need to solve the equation:

0 = -130x(x - 61)

To use the Zero Product Property, we set each factor equal to zero and solve for x:

x = 0 or x - 61 = 0

For the first equation, x = 0 indicates that the ball has not traveled any distance yet, so it has not hit the ground.

For the second equation, we add 61 to both sides of the equation:

x = 61

Therefore, the ball will have traveled 61 yards before hitting the ground.
