A neighborhood threw a fireworks celebration for the 4th of July. Two bottle rockets were launched upward; one from the ground
and one from a platform.
The first bottle rocket launched from the ground had an initial
velocity of 160 feet per second. The first bottle rocket's motion
can be modeled by the following function:
h(t) = -1612 + 1601
The second bottle rocket wa
about 10 feet off the ground
in the table, where g(t) is the
function of time, t.
