Okay, so i see that you need help with this question, and it says a rocket is launched in the air.
00:04
The height in meters above sea level is a function, as a function in time in seconds is given by h of t equals negative 4 .9 t squared plus 229 t plus 234.
00:18
What is the height in meters above sea level of the rocket 28 seconds after it is launched? round your answer to one decimal place.
00:25
So for number one, i'm going to do negative 4 .9 times 28 squared plus 229 plus 234.
00:39
I'm sorry, plus 229 times 28 plus 234.
00:47
So i'm going to multiply negative 4 .9 times 28 times 28, and that is negative 38 ,000, not 38 ,000, 3 ,841 .6 plus 229 times 28, 6 ,412 plus 234.
01:18
So now i'm going to combine all of these.
01:20
So negative 3841 .6 plus 6412 plus 234, and that is a total of 2 ,804 .4, and then that's feet, and that's rounded to the nearest decimal place.

Number two, at what time does the rocket reach its maximum height? round your answer to three decimal places...
