Neglecting wind resistance,the height,h,in feet, of a sky diver,t,seconds after she junps from an airplane 1,648 above the ground is given by the formula h=-16ft square +1648. If a parachute opens 4.5 seconds after a sky diver leaves

the airplane,about how far will she be from the ground when the parachute opens?
Write out and solve and what was the answer you got.

To find out how far the skydiver will be from the ground when the parachute opens, we need to determine the height of the skydiver 4.5 seconds after she jumps. We can do this by substituting the given value of time (t = 4.5 seconds) into the height formula.

The height formula is given as:
h = -16t² + 1648

Substituting t = 4.5:
h = -16(4.5)² + 1648
h = -16(20.25) + 1648
h = -324 + 1648
h = 1324 feet

Therefore, the skydiver will be approximately 1324 feet above the ground when the parachute opens.
