In the context of the problem, the 7 in the expression \(-16t^2 + 32t + 7\) represents the initial height of the rock above the ground when Kenny throws it. Since he picks up the rock to a height of 7 feet off the ground, this value indicates that when \(t = 0\) seconds (the moment he releases the rock), its height is 7 feet.
kenny is standing on top of a boulder at his neighborhood pond he picks up a small rock so that it is 7 feet off the ground and throws the rock into the pond the height of the rock after t seconds can be modeled by the expression -16t^2 + 32t + 7 what does the 7 represent in the context of the problem
