In the expression \( -16t^2 + 40 \), the number 40 represents the starting height of the egg when it is dropped. Specifically, it indicates that the egg is initially at a height of 40 feet from the ground before it begins to fall.
Mr. Moore is conducting an experiment by dropping eggs in a protective case from the top of the 40 ft tall building. The following expression can be used to evaluate the height of the egg in relation to t time - 16t ^ 2 + 40 What does the 40 represent ? (1 point) 40 represents the number of eggs Mr. Moore dropped on his way up the stairs of the building. 40 represents how man seconds it takes for the egg to land 40 represents the starting height of the egg when it is dropped 40 represents how fast the egg is traveling when dropped
