The polynomial –16t2 + vt + h0 models the height, in feet, of a ball t seconds after it is thrown. In this polynomial, v represents the initial vertical velocity of the ball and h0 represents the initial height of the ball.Min throws a baseball from a height of 6 feet with an initial vertical velocity of 30 feet per second. Which polynomial models the height of the ball, in feet?14t² + 6-16t² + 36t-16t² + 6t + 30-16t² + 30t + 6
Use the model −16t² + vt + h₀. The initial vertical velocity is v = 30, and the initial height is h₀ = 6, so substitute those values to get −16t² + 30t + 6. This matches choice D, −16t² + 30t + 6.
