Answer:

the height of the rock 3.2 seconds after it is propelled

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

The function h(t) = –16t2 + 28t + 500 represents the height of a rock t seconds after it is propelled by a slingshot

Let

t------> the time in seconds

h----> the the height of a rock after it is propelled by a slingshot in meters

we know that

[tex]h(t)=-16t^{2} +28t+500[/tex]

For [tex]x=3.2\ sec[/tex]

Find the value of h(t)

[tex]h(3.2)=-16(3.2)^{2} +28(3.2)+500=425.76\ meters[/tex]

therefore

h(3.2) represent the height of the rock [tex]3.2[/tex] seconds after it is propelled
