Check the pictures below.
if we knew the roots/solutions of the equation, we can set h(s) = 0 and solve for "s" to find out how many seconds is it when the height is 0.
if you notice in the first picture, when f(x) = 0, is when the parabola hits a root/solution or the ground, for David he'll be hitting the water surface, and the equation that has both of those roots/solutions conspicuous is
h(s) = -4.9(s - 2)(s + 1).
Here, we are missing the slope and the y intercept.
Lets look for the y intercept first.
Where does it cross the y axis? At 3!!
3 is the y intercept.
Now, find the slope by using the slope formula.
(0,3) and (2,1)
m = 1-3/2-0 = -2/2 = -2/2 = -1
m = -1
Okay, so we found our slope, now just write the equation.
Answer: y = -1x + 3
