Suppose h(t)=-5t^2+7t+6 is an expression giving the height of a diver above the water (in meters) in seconds after the diver leaves the springboard. How high above the water is the springboard?
h(t)=-5t^2+7t+6
At t = 0, the diver is still on the springboard and the first two terms = 0.....so.......the springboard [and diver] are 6m above the water
