The polynomial - 16t+ vt +s, represents the height (in feet) of an object, where v is the
initial vertical velocity (in feet per second), s, is the initial height of the object (in feet), and t is the time in seconds). Write a
polynomial that represents the height of the object. Then find the height of the object after 1 second

Answer:

At 1.5 seconds and 2.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is parabolic motion, the object will reach the height of 68 feet when it's going up AND when it's coming down. In order to find out those times, you set the h on the left side of the equation equal to 68, because h stands for height.

Set that equal to 0 and factor to solve for t:

Using the quadratic formula, we get t = 1.5 and t = 2.5
