Question

PLEASE HELP ME‼️

When an object is dropped from a building (height 1350 feet), the object's height ,h, in feet, from the ground at time, t, in seconds after being dropped can be determined by h = P(t) = - 16t ^ 2 + 1350 Find the distance an object is from the ground 5 seconds after being dropped

The distance is ? Feet

Answer 1

Answer: The distance is 950 feet.

Step-by-step explanation: To find the height from the ground after 5 seconds, you just need to replace t (time in seconds) with 5 and calculate the formula.

h/P(t) = -16 (5^2)+1350

= -16x25+1350

= -400+1350

=950 feet

The object is 950 feet from the ground after being dropped for 5 seconds.
