The situation described by the function h(t)=-2.5t^2+15t+5 represents a quadratic function that models the height of an object thrown into the air at time t. The equation indicates that the object was initially 5 units above the ground, and then it was thrown upward with an initial velocity of 15 units per second.
The object reaches a maximum height and then falls back to the ground, as indicated by the negative coefficient in front of the t^2 term. The vertical distance of the object from the ground at time t is given by the function h(t).
h\left(t\right)=-2.5t^{2}+15t+5 what is the situation
