A large explosion causes wood and metal debris to rise vertically into the air with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second. The polyomialh=96t-16t2h=96t-16t2gives the height,hh, of the falling debris above the ground, in feet,ttseconds after the explosion.
A) Use the given polynomial equation to find the height of the debris 3 second(s) after the explosion:
Answer: After 3 second(s), the height isfeet.
B) Factor the right side of the given polynomial equation completely:
Answer:h=h=
(Make sure you use the correct variable).
