Abasketball player's hang time is the time spent in the air when shooting a basket. the formula t=d \sqrt{x}d/2 models hang time, t, in seconds, in terms of the vertical distance of a player's jump, d, in feet. when a particular player dunked a basketball, his hang time for the shot was approximately 1.28 seconds. what was the vertical distance, d, of his jump, rounded to the nearest tenth?
6.5 feet
1.27=\sqrt{d} /2
(2x1.27)^{2}=d
d=2.54^{2}
d=6.4516 feet (round)
d=6.5 feet
