The height of the rectangular sand box is 1 2/3 meters or 1.6666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666667 meters.

Explanation:</h2>
In this problem we have a pumpkin is launched from the top of a 20 foot tall platform at an initial velocity of 84 feet per second. So the height, h, of the pumpkin at time t seconds after the launch can be modeled by the equation:

So this is the equation of a parabola. The maximum of this parabola occurs at its vertex. So let's find this vertex:

Finally, the maximum occurs at time 2.625 seconds when the height is 130.25m
F(x) will = 0 when either x = 0 or x = 8. Here's how you know.
if x = 0 then 0 * (x - 8) = 0 because anything multiplied by 0 is zero.
if x = 8 then 8 * (8 - 8) = 8 * 0 = 0
A <<<<<< Answer
No it is not a function because the x coordinate 0 has 2 y coordinates which is 4 and 5. a function means each x coordinate can only have one y coordinate
