The team mascot shoots a rolled T-shirt from a special T-shirt cannon to a section of people in the stands at a basketball game.
The T-shirt starts at a height of 8 feet when it leaves the cannon and 1 second later reaches a maximum height of 24 feet before coming back down to a lucky winner.
If the path of the T-shirt is represented by a parabola, which function could be used to represent the height of the T-shirt as a function of time, t, in seconds?
f(t) = –16(t – 1)2 + 24
f(t) = –16(t + 1)2 + 24
f(t) = –16(t – 1)2 – 24
f(t) = –16(t + 1)2 – 24

Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is not complete, what are the coordinates of point Q and R. But I would show how to solve this.
The location of a point O(x, y) which divides line segment AB in the ratio a:b with point A at () and B(
) is given by the formula:
If point Q is at () and S at (
) and R(x, y) divides QS in the ratio QR to RS is 3:5, The coordinates of R is:
Let us assume Q(−9,4) and S(7,−4)
