The scenario that would use a quadratic equation to solve is:

**A coach models the trajectory of a ball to find out how high the player is kicking the ball.**

This is because the path of a kicked ball is typically parabolic, which can be modeled using a quadratic equation. The other scenarios describe linear growth or exponential growth, which do not involve quadratic equations.
