During the All Stars Skills competition, a puck was launched through the air at a
speed of 41 km/h from a height of 2.5 cm. The algebraic model of the path of the
puck is defined by h = -4.9+ + 41t +0.025, where h represents height in cm and t
represents time in seconds.
1.Construct a table of values for the first 10 seconds of the puck's movement.
Round to 0 decimal places.
2.Using graph paper, graph the data points. Join with a smooth curve. Scan your
graph.
3.Approximately how long before the puck will hit the ice?
4.For what values of time is the height invalid?
