    The height of an object can be modeled by the formula h(t) = -16t2 + 70t + 95, where h(t) is in feet after t seconds.

    What is the height of the object after 5 seconds?

    95 feet

    45 feet

    70 feet

    171.56 feet

    An NFL punter at the 20 yard line kicks a football downfield with an initial velocity of 75 ft/sec at an angle of 660. The ball leaves his foot at a height of 3 feet.


    Model the scenario using parametric equations.

    x = (20cos(660))t; y=-16t2 + (20sin(660)t + 75

    x = (20cos(660))t; y=-16t2 + (20sin(660)t + 3

    x = (75cos(660))t; y=-16t2 + (75sin(660)t + 20

    x = (75cos(660))t; y=-16t2 + (75sin(660)t + 3
