Answer:

see attached

Explanation:

You want the graph of f(t) = -150t^2 + 120t with intercepts, vertex, axes, and f(2) marked.

Graph

The graph is shown in the attachment.

Additional comment

The equation factors as ...

f(t) = -30t(5t -4)

The zeros are values of x that make the factors zero: x=0, x=4/5. The vertex is halftway between, at x = 2/5. The value of the function there is ...

f(2/5) = -30(2/5)(5(2/5) -4) = (-60/5)(-2) = 24 . . . . . y-value of vertex

The value of the function at x=2 is found as ...

f(2) = -30(2)(5·2 -4) = -60(6) = -360

The function for the graph is f(t)= -150t^2 + 120t please help!!!-example-1
