The height of the rocket is modeled by the equation: h(t)=-16t^2+32t+10, which is a quadratic equation. Here h(t) represents the height of the rocket after t seconds. Answers are: A- The number of seconds after the rocket released. This is correct ( it is t ). B- The initial height of the rocket(also false, this is h(0)=10) C - The initial velocity of the rocket( false, there is no vi ) D - the height of the rocket after t seconds ( false, this is h(t) ).
