During one game, the Dallas Cowboys punter was called upon to punt the ball eight times. On one of these punts, the punter
struck the ball at his own 30-yard line. The height, h of the ball above the field as a function of time, t, in seconds can be partially
modeled by the following table:

Use your graphing calculator, to obtain a quadratic regression function for these data. Round the values of ab, and c to four
decimal places.
a. (1) .-15.97521 + 52.8875t + 2.5536
c. h(t) = 15.975212 + 52.8875t + 2.5536
b. h(t) = -15.975212 + 52.8875+ + 2.5536
d. h(t) = -15.97521 - 52.88757 +2.5536
