An object is dropped from the top of a tower with a height of 1180 feet. Neglecting air resistance, the height of the object at time t seconds is given by the polynomial 16t²+1180. Find the height of the object at t=4 seconds.

The height of the object at 4 seconds is _________ feet

Solution

An object is dropped from the top of a tower with a height of 1180 feet

h(t)= 16t²+1180

height of the object at t=4 seconds. is h(t)

height of the object at t=4 seconds. =  16*4²+1180

height of the object at t=4 seconds. =  256+1180

height of the object at t=4 seconds. = 924 feet

The height of the object at 4 seconds is ____924_____ feet
