Answer:

h(0)=400

The above function value for h(0) shows that height of the ball before it was dropped i.e. at time = 0 seconds.

The height of the ball above the ground before it was dropped = 400 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The quadratic function that models the height of the baseball above the ground in feet , t seconds after it was dropped is given as:

h(t)=-16t^2+400

To find h(0) and interpret the meaning of the function value in contect of the problem.

Solution:

In order to find h(0), we will replace t=0 in the given function as h(t) is a function of time t.

Thus, we have:

h(0)=-16(0)^2+400

h(0)=16(0)+400

h(0)=0+400

h(0)=400  (Answer)

The above function value for h(0) shows that height of the ball before it was dropped i.e. at time = 0 seconds.

The height of the ball above the ground before it was dropped = 400 ft.
