A soccer ball is kicked into the air, and its path can be modeled with a quadratic function. The table shows the time, t, in sec
onds, and the height of the soccer ball, h, in feet. Follow the steps to write the function. 1. Identify x-intercepts: (0, 0) and (5, 0) 2. Use factored form: f(t) = a(t − 0)(t − 5) f(t) = at(t − 5) 3. Find the value of: 12 = a(3)(3 − 5) 4. Write the function: f(t) = t(t − )
