Answer:

Initial height of the anchor is 75 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

$l(t)=-2.4t+75$

where, I is the anchor's elevation in meter after t seconds dropped from the ship.

We have to find the initial height of anchor that is we have to put t = 0 in the equation.

Putting t = 0, we get,

$l(0)=-2.4(0)+75 = 75$

Thus, initial height of the anchor is 75 meters.
