H1 (t) = 196 - 16 t-squared. / / / H2 (t) = 271-16t-squared. / / / In each function, 't' is the number of seconds after that ball is dropped. / / / Each function is only true until the first time that H=0, that is, until the first bounce. Each function becomes very complicated after that, and we would need more information in order to write it.
For the equation,
y = 1/2(x+3)^2 -5
The vertice is (-3,-5). Therefore the axis of symmetry is X = -3.
The temperature would be about 54.
