Answer: y = 40 + 21t

Explanation:

Apply the equation of distance covered.

d = vt + C

Where d is the distance covered

v = velocity , t = time

C = constant = initial distance covered

For the case above....

d = y

y(t) = vt + C

But y(0) =40 = C

C = 40ft

velocity v = 21 ft/s

Therefore, the equation of the altitude is given by;

y(t) = 21t +40

y = 40 + 21t
