Question

A projectile is fired vertically upward and has a position given by s(t)=-16t2+192t+208 for 0≤t≤13. Complete parts ​(a)–​(e) below.

a. Graph the position function for 0≤t≤13. Curve is to be graphed in a [−4,13,1] by [0,1900,100] window.

b. From the graph of the position​ function, identify the time at which the projectile has an instantaneous velocity of​ zero; call this time t=a.
t= ?
​(Type an integer or a​ decimal.)
 
c. Confirm your answer to part​ (b) by making a table of average velocities to approximate the instantaneous velocity at
tequals=a.
Complete the table below. Please detail solution
