Answer:

It seems that this question would make more sense if it were: Which ordered pair can be a solution of
h(t)=-16^2+80t

All alternatives but B) cannot be a solution for the function.

Explanation:

Here we have
t=x

So, we may write the funtion as:
h(x)=-16^2+80x


h(x)=y

Let's test all the points:

A)
(1, 64)


h(1)=-16^2+80(1)\\h(1)=-256+80\\h(1)=-176

B)
(2, 96)


h(2)=-16^2+80(2)\\h(2)=-256+160\\h(2)=96

C)
(-4, 256)


h(-4)=-16^2+80(-4)\\h(-4)=-256-320\\h(-4)=-576

D)
(5, 0)


h(5)=-16^2+80(5)\\h(5)=144

Answer:

NON of them can be a solution.

Explanation:

When I plugged them in to the equation they all came out false.
