The New Haven High School cheerleaders got a t-shirt gun. The cheerleaders standon the track, and shoot the t-shirts up in the air.The quadratic function that models the height (in feet) of the t-shirt after a certainamount of time (in seconds) is:h(t) = –16ť+ 64+ + 4How high is the gun being held when it is fired?
Accepted Solution
A:
Answer: the gun was held 4ft high i.e H = 4ftStep-by-step explanation:To determine how high the gun was held when it was fired H;Before firing the t-shirt up, the gun and the t-shirt are both at the same height.Therefore,H = h(0) i.e h(t) at t = 0h(t) = -16t^2 + 64t + 4 H = h(0) = -16(0)^2 + 64(0) + 4H = 4ft
