Question 378011: A cliff diver stands on a cliff overlooking the water. To approximate his height above the water, he drops a pebble and times its fall. If the pebble takes about 3 seconds to strike the water, approximately how high is the diver above the water? Use the model 2 0 h(t) = −16t + h , where h is the pebble’s height in feet above the ground, t is the time in seconds after the pebble is dropped, and 0 h is the height of the cliff in feet.
