A ball is thrown in the air so that t seconds after it is thrown, its height h (in metres) above the ground is given by h(t) = 25t-5t2

Another ball is fired from a machine, and its height above the ground is given by g(t) = 5+3t, where g is height (in metres) and t is time (in seconds) after it is fired.

(Ignore effects of gravity)

Using the same axes and scales, graph the two functions.

How did you get the domain?

The domain of the first function is   [ 0, 5].....i.e., from the time [ in seconds ] the ball is thrown until it hits the ground

 

For the second function.....the ball constantly rises......so the domain is  [ 0, infinity )

This is, of course, unrealistic.....however....no bounds are specified
