A diver is standing on a platform above the pool. He jumps from the platform with an initial upward velocity of 8 ft/s. Use the formula: h(t) = −16 t² + 8t + 24

How high is the platform?

• .25 ft

• 24 ft

• 25 ft

• 8 ft

Heather dropped a water balloon over the side of her school building from a height of 80 feet. The approximate height of the balloon at any point during its fall can be represented by the following quadratic equation:

h = -16t² + 80

About how long did it take for the balloon to hit the ground?

• 1.73 seconds

• 2.24 seconds

• 2.45 seconds

• 2.83 seconds

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 40ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function :

h(t) = -16t² + 40t + 10

How many seconds does it take the ball to reach its maximum height?

• 1.25 seconds

• 1.4 seconds

• 2.5 seconds

• 2 seconds

Find the vertex of 
f(x) = -x² - 4x + 12.

• (-2, 16)
• (-2, 14)
