Answer:
The correct option is (c).
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of a diver abov the water is given by :
[tex]h(t) = -5t^2 + 10t + 3[/tex] ....(1)
Where h(t) is in meters and t is in seconds
Put t = 1 s, in equation (1) we get :
[tex]h(1) = -5(1)^2 + 10(1) + 3\\\\=8\ \text{feet}[/tex]
Put t = 5 s, in equation (1) we get :
[tex]h(1) = -5(5)^2 + 10(5) + 3\\\\=-72\ \text{feet}[/tex]
Out of the given options, "after 1 second, the diver will be 8 feet above the water is (c)". Hence, the correct option is (c).
