Answer:

The correct option is D

D) the height of the rock 3.2 seconds after it is propelled

Question:

The question is incomplete as it doesn't say what to find. I know that whole question which is given below

The function h(t) = –16t2 + 28t + 500 represents the height of a rock t seconds after it is propelled by a slingshot.What does h(3.2) represent?

A) the height of the rock 3.2 seconds before it reaches the ground

B) the time it takes the rock to reach the ground, or 3.2 seconds

C) the time it takes the rock to reach a height of 3.2 meters

D) the height of the rock 3.2 seconds after it is propelled

Solution:

h(t) represents the the height of the rock t seconds after it has propelled, where t is the time. If we take t=3.2, it means that we can find the height of the rock 3.2 seconds after it has been propelled by a slingshot, which is represented by the function h(t). Since the explanation given matches the option D, option D is the correct option.
