An Object Is Thrown Upward from a Height of 6

question 83

Multiple Choice

An object is thrown upward from a height of 6.4 feet at a velocity of 80 feet per second. Use the position equation s = -16t² + v₀t + s₀ to select a function that represents the situation and select the graph of the function.
​

• A)s = -16t² + 80 - 6.4​
• B)s = -16t² + 80t​​
• C)s = -16t² - 80t - 6.4​
• D)s = -16t² - 80t + 6.4​
• E)s = -16t² + 80t + 6.4​​
