During one game, the Dallas Cowboys punter was called upon to punt the ball eight times. On one of these punts, the punter struck the ball at his own 30-yard line. The height, h of the ball above the field as a function of time, t, in seconds
can be partially modeled by the following table:
0
0.6 1.2 1.8
12.4
3.0
h(t)
12.50
28.56
43.10 46.12
37.12 17.60
Use your graphing calculator, to obtain a quadratic regression function for these data. Round the values of a, b, and c to
four decimal places.
a. h(t) = -15.97528° + 52.8875+ + 2.5536 C. (t) = 15.975212 + 52 88751 + 2 5536
b. h(t) = -15.9752° + 52.8875t +2.5536 d. h(t) = -15 975282 - 52.8875+ + 2.5536
