Question 165911: 5.) If a ball is tossed into the air from a height of 6 feet with a velocity of 32 feet per second then its altitude at time t(in seconds) can be described by the function.
a(t) = - 16t^2 + 32t + 6
find the altitude of the ball at 2 seconds.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a(2) = - 16(2)^2 + 32(2) + 6 substitute "2" for "x" and solve
a(2)=6
