Answer:

  D.  The ball was thrown from an initial height of 3 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The generic form of the equation for (vertical) ballistic motion is ...

  h(t)=-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2+v_0t+h_0

where g is the acceleration due to gravity, usually approximated as 32 ft/s², v₀ is the initial upward velocity, and h₀ is the initial height.

The given equation matches the situation where the object was launched vertically at the rate of 40 ft/s from a height of 3 ft.

The 3 represents an initial height of 3 feet.

Veronika [31]

Answer:

f(-2) = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

In the expression, to get f(-2);

we simply substitute the value of x with -2

We have this as;

f(-2) = -4(-2)^2 + 10

f(-2) = -4(4) + 10

f(-2) = -16 + 10

f(-2) = -6
