The rocket was launched from a platform 4.9 feet above the groundB. The rocket reached a maximum height of 59 feetC. It took the rocket 3.5 seconds to reach its maximum heightD. The rocket landed after 34 secondsE. The equation that represents the rocket’s height over time has two solutions

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer: Option 'B' and 'C' are correct.Step-by-step explanation:Since we have given that A  rocket was fired into the air.The rocket reached a maximum height of 59 feet at point (3.5,59) as shown in the figure.And it took the rocket 3.5 seconds to reach its maximum height.and the rocket landed after 6.9 seconds, So option 'D' is false which states  The rocket landed after 34 seconds.The equation that represents the rocket’s height over time has two solutions is completely false as it has only one solutions.Hence, Option 'B' and 'C' are correct.
