Question 425648: The height (h) in feet of a ball t seconds after being dropped is given by the function h(t)=9-16t^2 From what height was the ball initially dropped? Answer by htmentor(809) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! At the instant the ball is dropped, t = 0.
So we have h(0) = 9 - 16(0)^2 = 9
So the answer is 9 feet.
