The height in meters of a projectile involves the object's initial height,
upward velocity, and acceleration because of gravity. If the equation
y =- 9.8t + 109.7t + 7.4 models the number of meters, y, a toy rocket
is above the ground t seconds after being launched, what does the 7.4
represent?

Respuesta :

Answer: Initial height before launch

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The equation [tex]y=-9.8t+109.7t+7.4[/tex]  the height of toy rocket after t sec

when the rocket is launched, time is [tex]t=0[/tex]

Substituting 0 for [tex]t[/tex] in the equation

[tex]\Rightarrow y(0)=-9.8(0)+109.7(0)+7.4\\\Rightarrow y(0)=7.4[/tex]

Here, [tex]7.4[/tex] represents that rocket is already at a height of [tex]7.4[/tex] m before the launch.
