Scientists launched a rocket which can be modeled by the equation h = -16t^2 + 48t + 2, where t is time in seconds, and h is the distance from the ground in feet.
a) Find the maximum height of this rocket.
_ feet
b) When does the maximum height occur?
_ seconds
+36916 h = -16t^2 + 48t + 2, Quadratic equation a = -16 b = 48 c = 2
max will occur at t = -b/2a
use the value of 't' you calculated above in the equation to calculate the max height.....
