A cannonball is shot straight up into the air. The height of the cannonball at time t is represented by the function f (t) = -16t^2+40t+5.

What does the 5 represent?

the maximum height of the cannonball

the initial height of the cannonball

the time when the cannonball hits the ground

the initial velocity of the cannonball

the initial height of the cannon ball

Step-by-step explanation:

- Time (t) is basically how many seconds or minutes you factor into the given function. 16 (time in exact seconds or minutes) ^2+40 (time in exact seconds or minutes) + 5

- The + 5 can only be where the cannonball was initially fired from logically. The Velocity formula is already there for you to plug the time into^^^

(I used time in minutes/seconds to try and explain what the function is asking)
