Question

A stone is thrown into the air. The height based on time, t, can be modeled by the expression below. -16t^2+16t+96.

Match the form of the expression that most clearly revels the following:

**Problem 4: Projectile Motion of a Stone**

A stone is thrown into the air. The height based on time, \( t \), can be modeled by the expression below.

\[
-16t^2 + 16t + 96
\]

**Instructions:**

Match the form of the expression that most clearly reveals the following:

1. _____ The time it took the stone to land
2. _____ The starting position of the stone
3. _____ The maximum height of the stone

**Options:**

a. \(-16t^2 + 16t + 96\)

b. \(-16(x - \frac{1}{2})^2 + 100\)

c. \(-16(t^2 - t - 6)\)

d. \(-16(t + 2)(t - 3)\)
