A small flying toy drone is launched into the air, rises for a time, and then crashes to the ground. The drone's height above the ground, in metres, can be modelled by the function: h(t) = (-2t+8)e^t-3 where t is in seconds.     a) How fast is the drone rising when it is launched? (to one decimal place, no units)         b)    At what time does the drone reach its maximum height? (no units)         c)    At what time does the drone crash? (no units)         d)    With what speed does the drone hit the ground? (to one decimal place, no units)

pls help with this and dont take long

A small flying toy drone is launched into the air, rises for a time, and then crashes to the ground. The drone's height above the ground, in metres, can be modelled by the function:
h(t) = (-2t+8)e^t-3
where t is in seconds.
