Heyo!

So, the best prediction for the height of the rocket after 5.5 seconds, based on the given data above, I believe would be C. 220 ft.

Hope this helps! Pls, LMK if it does! Good Luck!

The best prediction for the height of the rocket after 5.5 sec will be 220 feet.

What is a quadratic equation?

A quadratic equation is an equation where the highest power of the variable is 2.

Given data for the height of the rocket at different time is modeled by the function  h(t) = -16t² + 128t

The height of the rocket after 5.5 sec will be

= h(5.5) = [- 16(5.5)² + 128 × 5.5] feet = (- 484 + 704) feet = 220 feet.
