Question

The height of a rocket a given number of seconds after it is released is modeled by h(t)= - 16^2+32t+10.What does t represent?
A.the number of seconds after the rocket is released
B. the initial height of the rocket
C. the initial velocity of the rocket
D. the height of the rocket after t seconds

Answer 1

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) is the height of the rocket with respect to time.  So t in our model represents the height of the rocket after t seconds.  You can plug in any values of t now to see how high the rocket is at that exact moment in time.
