An object in launched directly upward at 64 feet per second (ft/s) from a platform 80 feet high. Its height is represented by the equation

s(t) = –16t² + 64t + 80

What will be the object's maximum height?

You jump off a 24 foot high cliff and your fall is modeled by the function:

h(t) = -16t² + 8t + 24

How long would it take you to hit the water?

You jump off a 24 foot high cliff and your fall is modeled by the function:

h(t) = -16t² + 8t + 24

When would you reach 16 feet above the water?

A diver is standing on a platform above the pool. He jumps form the platform with an initial upward velocity of 8 ft/s. Use the formula: h(t) = −16 t² + 8t + 24

How high is the platform?

The profit from selling local ballet tickets depends on the ticket price. Using past receipts, we find that the profit can be modeled by the function:

p= -15x² +600x +60

What is the maximum profit you can make from selling tickets?
