Question

Jamie throws a ball into the air with an initial upward velocity of 68 feet per second from a height of 12 feet. Write a quadratic function to model the situation using h(t) to represent the ball's height in feet and t to represent its time in seconds.

Answer 1

Answer:

$h(t)=68t+12$

Step-by-step explanation:

let t= time in seconds, h=height in ft

height at $t_0=12ft$=$h_o$

Velocity,v=$68m/s$

Height=$velocity*time=vt$

$h_t=h_0+h_(t-0)$

Therefore height after $t_n$ is obtained by adding height gained to initial height.

$h(t)=68t+12$
