Calib is going to throw his lucky penny from his balcony on a cruise ship. When he throws the penny upward from 128 feet above the ground, the function h ( t ) = − 16 t 2 + 32 t + 128 models the height, h , of the penny above the ocean as a function of time, t . Find: (a) the zeros of this function which is when the penny will hit the ocean (b) when the penny will be 128 feet above the ocean. (c) the height the penny will be at t = 1 seconds which is when the penny will be at its highest point.
