Question

A timer is started and a few moments later a swimmer dives into the water and then comes back up. The swimmer's depth (in feet) as a function of time (in seconds after the timer was started) is given by the equation h(t)=t2−16t+55
Rewrite the formula in factored form and select each true statement below.


This function shows that the swimmer dives into the water two separate times.

The swimmer comes back up 16 seconds after the timer is started.

The swimmer dives into the water 5 seconds after the timer is started.

The swimmer reaches a maximum depth of 16 feet.

The swimmer comes back up 11 seconds after the timer is started.

Answer 1

\[h(t)=(t.......)(t........)\]
