Amy throws a softball in the air with an initial velocity of 50 feet per second. She throws the softball from a height of 6 feet. The height of the softball, h, is modeled by the function h (t) = -16t^2 + 50t + 6, where t is the time in seconds. How high is the softball after 1.5 seconds?

Answer 1

well, just substitute 1.5 for every t.
