  5.   In baseball, a pop fly should be easily caught if it stays in the air for 7 seconds. Suppose a ball that is hit can be represented by the function y = –16t2 + 125t + 5, where y is the height after t seconds. Will the ball be considered an easy catch?
    A. yes, because t > 7 B. no, because t < 7
    C. yes, because t < 7 D. no, because t > 7
