Question

The distance S that a certain object falls from a height of 350 ft in T seconds is given by the following formula.

S = 350 - 16t^2 + vt

Find S when T = 2 and V = -4

S = ??ft

Answer 1

278 feet.

Explanation:

S = 350 - 16t^2 + vt

t =2; v = -4.

S = 350 - 16 * (2)^2 + 2 * (-4)

S = 350 - 16 * 4 - 8

S = 350 - 64 - 8

S = 350 - 72

S = 278 feet.

Hope this helps!
