Question

A box falls off a window ledge on a tall building. The height of the box above the ground can be found using the function h(t)=-16t^2+150, where r stands for the number of seconds since the box fell.

a). Find the height of the window ledge.

Answer 1

The height of the window ledge is the height of the box when t = 0. So, we need to find h(0).

```

h(0) = -16(0)^2 + 150

h(0) = 150

```

Therefore, the height of the window ledge is 150 feet.
