Write the equation in standard form of the parabola passing through the points (1, -4), (2, -3), (3, -4).

An object in launched directly upward at 64 feet per second (ft/s) from a platform 80 feet high. Its height is represented by the equation 
s(t) = –16t² + 64t + 80.
What will be the object's maximum height? 

• 2 ft

• 80 ft

• 144 ft

• 64 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 = -16t^2 + 80 About how long did it take for the balloon to hit the ground?

• 1.73 seconds

• 2.24 seconds

• 2.45 seconds

Calculate the quadratic regression function for this table of values to the nearest tenth.

• f(x) =
   2x² - 9x + 10

• f(x)=
   3x² + 9x - 10

• f(x) =
   3.1x² - 9.2x - 10.3

• f(x) =
  2.1x² - 8.6x + 10.1

The function f(t) = -5t²+20t + 60 models the approximate height of an object t seconds after it is launched. How many seconds does it take the object to hit the ground?

• 4 seconds

• -2 seconds

• 6 seconds

• 9 seconds

A diver is standing on a platform above the pool. He jumps form 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

The profit from selling local ballet tickets depends on the ticket price. Using past receipts, we find that the profit can be modeled by the function: p= -15x² +600x +60 What is the maximum profit you can make from selling tickets?

• $6060

• $20

• $600

• $10,250

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) = -16t^2 + 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
