24. In a football game, a defensive player jumps up to block a pass by the opposing team’s quarterback.
The player bats the ball downward with his hand at an initial velocity of -50 ft per second when the
ball is 7 ft above the ground. How long do the defensive player’s teammates have to intercept the ball
before it hits the ground?

25. A basketball player passes the ball to a teammate. The ball leaves the player’s hand 5 feet above the
ground and has an initial vertical velocity of 55 feet per second. The teammate catches the ball when
it returns to a height of 5 feet. How long is the ball in the air?
