You are trying to dunk a basketball. You need to jump 2.5 ft in the air to dunk the ball. The height that your feet are above the floor is given by the function h = -16t2 + 12 t.
a) What is the maximum height your feet will be above the floor?
b) What is the initial velocity of your jump?
c) What is the initial height of your jump?
d) Will you be able to dunk the basketball?
+130511 a) and c) have the same answer, 2.25 ft
b)= 12 ft/s
