The function h(t) = -16t2+400 represents the height, in feet, of an object from the ground at t seconds after it is dropped. Determine how far the object falls between 2 and 3 seconds

Answer 1

I am assuming the function is h(t) = -16 x t² + 400 (which is the usual form of this type of function)

So we have h(2) = -16 x 2² + 400 = 336 and

h(3) = -16 x 3² + 400 = 256 So the object fell 80 feet between 2 and 3 seconds.
