\n" ); document.write( "Hi,
\n" ); document.write( "h=45-5t-5t^2
\n" ); document.write( "How long after the ball is thrown does it hit the ground?
\n" ); document.write( "h = 0
\n" ); document.write( "5t^2 + 5t - 45 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "t^2 + t - 9 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "\"t+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"t+=+%28-1+%2B-+sqrt%28+1%5E2+%2B+36+%29%29%2F%282%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"t+=+%28-1+%2B+sqrt%28+37%29%29%2F%282%29+\" Throwing out the negative solution for time
