Question 1145666: The path of a golf ball hit off a tree can be modelled by the function h(d)=-0.002d^2+0.4d= 0.03,where h(d) is the height of the ball before it first hits the ground. Determine the horizontal distance the ball travlled from the tree when it hit the ground to the nearest hundreth using your graphing calculator.

The problem says to use your graphing calculator to solve the problem. We can't help you with that.

Plug the equation into your calculator; graph it; and find where the function value is 0.

I have better things to do with my time than point out the multitude of errors in your statement of the problem....
