Question

A rocket is launched at 85 feet per second from a launch pad that is 28 feet above the ground. Which equation can be used to determine the height of the rocket at a given time after the launch?

Answer 1

the answer for this question is h(t)=-16t^2+85t+28

Explanation:

i just took a test and this was one of the question and it told me this is the right answer

Answer 2

Assuming the rocket flies in a straight line forever (as implied by your question),


`y=85x+28`

where

x = seconds after launch
y = feet above the ground
