3.2 Determining Zeros within a Real World context-A

​The height, H, in feet of a toy rocket launched from the top of a 20-story building x seconds after it is launched can be modeled by the function H(x)=-16x^2+32x+240. Use the information provided to complete questions 1 - 3.

​Unit 3, Lesson 2: Determining Zeros Within a Real-World Context

​1. Determine the zeros of the function. Show your work.



2. Interpret the zeros of the function in terms of the context.



3. Determine whether both zeros of the function are viable. If a zero is not viable, explain why.
