Sketch the indicated curves by the methods of this section. You may check the graphs by using a calculator.The altitude $h$ (in $\mathrm{ft}$ ) of a certain rocket is given by $h=-t^{3}+54 t^{2}+480 t+20,$ where $t$ is the time (in s) of flight. Sketch the graph of $h=f(t)$

The formula for the height…
we have a baseball pitcher throwing a ball from a height of six feet toward a plate to 60 feet away, and he's gonna release the ball with a speed of 130 feet per second. We want to determine the height of the ball as it crosses the flip as a crosses the plate. The vertical position formula is going to be negative 16 t square plus visa bough T. But the original vertical velocity is zero, so we don't need to worry about that middle term and then plus y Sebo, which is the initial height, which would be six feet. The horizontal position function x of T off would eat well. 130 the horizontal velocity times the time it's traveling now, in order to figure out the height of it as a crosses the plate, we're gonna have to figure how long it takes this ball to travel 60 horizontal meters. Now, on your calculator. If you were to graph those Parametric equations, you get a graph that looks something like this. It's half of a parabola. Start to the height of six, and when it's 60 feet away, you're gonna see that its above the ground. Okay, first for the time that it takes to travel 60 meters, we're just going to go to the horizontal motion formula. I'm gonna fill in 64 x empty. Since that the distance that we wanted to travel, I will divide 60 by 130 which wouldn't give me point 462 So it takes 0.462 seconds to reach the plate. So now let's figure the height of it. At that point, I will fill in 0.462 seconds for the time. So I have negative 16 times 160.462 squared, plus six fourth vertical position. And when we feel that in, we get a high of 2.5 eight feet. So the pitches up 2.58 feet above the plate when it crosses

The number 2 is also the smallest & first prime number (since every other even number is divisible by two).
