A golf ball is hit from the ground and it’s height can be modeled by the equation h(t)=-16t^2+96t. what will the maximum height of the ball be? what is the value of the y-intercept? what does this mean in the context of the problem?
what is the maximum height that the ball reaches?
what is the time that the ball has traveled when it reaches its maximum height?
how long does the ball travel in the air before it hits the ground?

The federal reserve controls certain interest rates in the united states. investors often try to speculate as to whether the federal reserve will raise or lower rates and by how much. suppose a company conducts extensive interviews with financial analysts, and as a result, predicts that "thefed" will increase rates by an average of 0.25 percentage points every six months for the forseeable future. which type of equation could be used to model the predicted interest rates over the next several years, assuming no other significant changes? a) a linear equation b) a quadratic equation c) a polynomial equation d) an exponential equation
