Question 1205882: A drone takes off from a platform. Its height h(t), in meters, t seconds after
the takeoff can be modeled by the equation h(t) = −t² + 16t + 80.
Write the appropriate domain for this function based on the context.

h%28t%29+=+-t%5E2+%2B+16t+%2B+80


download-1
t-intercepts
t=-4
t=20
h-intercept
h=20=> point (0,20)
Since time cannot be negative so, t begins from 0 and h%28t%29 cannot be negative so domain of h%28t%29 is

0%3C=+t+%3C=+20
interval:
[0, 20]
