Quadratic Projectile

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 100 ft/s. Its height, h, after t seconds is given by the function
 h = -16t² + 64t + 960.
When did the ball hit the ground?

• 10 seconds

• 2 seconds

• 5 seconds

• 7 seconds

The height of an object thrown into the air can be modeled by the formula h(t) = -16t² + 70t + 95, where h(t) is in feet after t seconds.
What is the height of the object after 5 seconds?

• 95 feet

• 45 feet

• 70 feet

• 171.56 feet

What algebraic term are you solving for if the word problem is: The equation for leaping off a cliff is h = -16t^2 + 8t +24.  How long will it take for you to hit the water?

• Roots (Solutions)

• Axis of Symmetry

• Vertex

• y-intercept

The graph below represents the height of a rocket that is launched from the top of a building. Which statement best describes the path of the rocket?

• The rocket reached the ground between 2.25 seconds and 2.5 seconds.

• The rocket was below 34 feet between 0.25 seconds and 1 second.

• The rocket reached its maximum between 1 second and 1.25 seconds.

• The rocket descended 8 feet between 1.5 seconds and 1.75 seconds.

Which statement best describes the graph below?

• The ball was dropped from a height of 18 feet and then reached a maximum height of 20 feet before reaching the ground.

• The ball was thrown from the ground and then reached a height of 18 feet before landing again in just under 2 seconds.

• The ball was dropped from a height of 18 feet and then descended for just under 2 seconds before it hit the ground.

• The ball was thrown from a height of 2 feet and then descended for 18 seconds before hitting the ground.
