Problema Solution

A ball is thrown from 4 feet off the ground with a vertical velocity of 30 feet per second.

Write an equation to model the height of the ball:

Answer provided by our tutors

let h(t) is the height of the ball after t seconds:


h(t) = (1/2)(-32)*t^2 + 30*t + 4


h(t) = - 16t^2 + 30t + 4 is the equation that models the height of the ball.
