HELP PLEASEEEE PLEASEEEEE

A scientist records the motion of a dolphin as it jumps from the water. The function`h\left(t\right)=-8t^{2}+32t` models the dolphin’s height in feet above the water after t seconds.

What is the most reasonable domain for this situation? Explain your answer.

Answer:

The domain is 0≤t≤4

Explanation:

The domain for this function should not include any negative t values (since that would mean the time is negative) and it should not include any t values where the height is negative (since a negative heigh doesn't make sense in the context of this problem). The t values between 0 and 4 are the only t values where both of these conditions are met.
