Answer:

60 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for parabolic motion is

h(x)=-5x^2+v_{0}x+h_{0}

where v_{0} is the initial upwards velocity and h_{0} is the initial launching height.  If I am understanding your question, this is what you are looking for.  So the height AT the time of launch was 60 meters.

Answer:

The height of the object at the time of the launch is 60m

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the height in meters, x seconds after the launch is modeled by the following function :

h(x)=-5x^{2}+20x+60

For example, after x=3s from the launch the height of the object is :

h(3s)=-5.(3^{2})+20.(3)+60=75

h(3s)=75m

If we want to know the height of the object at the time of the launch we will need to find the height of the object at x=0s because that is the instant where the object is launched.

If we use x=0s in h(x) ⇒

h(0s)=-5.(0^{2})+20.(0)+60=60

We find that the height of the object at the time of launch is 60m
