Calib is going to throw his lucky penny from his balcony on a cruise ship. When he throws the penny upward from 128 feet above the ground, the function h(t)=16t2+32t+128 models the height, h, of the penny above the ocean as a function of time, t. Find: (a) the zeros of this function which is when the penny will hit the ocean (b) when the penny will be 128 feet above the ocean. (c) the height the penny will be at t=1 seconds which is when the penny will be at its highest point.
The number of unread emails in Anthony’s account is 110. This number grows by 25 unread emails a day.

The path of a ball is modeled by the function f(x)=120x2+3x+5, where fx is the height (in feet) of the ball and x is the horizontal distance (in feet) from where the ball was thrown. (a) What is the maximum height of the ball? (b) Which number determines the height at which the ball was thrown? Does changing this value change the coordinates of the maximum height of the ball? Explain.
