The function h(t) = 200 - 16t represents the height of a ball droppped from 200 feet. How far had the ball traveled after falling for 11 seconds?
To determine how far the ball had traveled after falling for 11 seconds, we need to find the value of h(11) in the given function.
The function h(t) = 200 - 16t represents the height of the ball at time t. In this function, 't' represents the time in seconds, and 'h(t)' represents the height of the ball in feet.
To find h(11), substitute t = 11 into the function:
h(11) = 200 - 16(11)
Now, simplify the expression:
h(11) = 200 - 176
h(11) = 24
Therefore, the ball had traveled 24 feet after falling for 11 seconds.
actually, it's
h(t) = 200 - 16t^2
so, use 11 for t and evaluate it.
