Mrs. Martone's 7th grade science class built and launched rockets. The graph below shows the height, in feet, over time, in seconds, of a student's rocket. Use the graph to answer the questions below. How long did it take the rocket to reach its maximum height?

• 1 second

• 5 seconds

• 7 seconds

• 11 seconds

A ball is thrown into the air with an initial velocity of 100 ft/s. Its height, h, after t seconds is given by the function

h = -16t² + 100t + 5.

What is the maximum height?

• 125.251 feet

• 161.25 feet

• 239.126 feet

• 115.25 feet

A ball is thrown into the air with an initial velocity of 100 ft/s. Its height, h, after t seconds is given by the function

h = -16t² + 100t + 5.

When did the ball hit the ground?

• 6.300 seconds

• 11.251 seconds

• 5.369 seconds

• 7.458 seconds

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 100 ft/s. Its height, h, after t seconds is given by the function
