?Use the position equation s = -16t2 + v0t + s0 to write a function that represents the situation and give the average velocity of the object from time t1 to time t2.An object is thrown upward from a height of 38 feet at a velocity of 84 feet per second. t1 = 1, t2 = 3
A. ?s= -16t2+ 38t + 84; avg. velocity = 79 ft/s B. ?s = -16t2+ 84t + 38; avg. velocity = 125 ft/s C. ?s = -16t2+ 38t + 84; avg. velocity = -26 ft/s D. ?s= -16t2+ 84t + 38; avg. velocity = 20 ft/s E. ?s= -16t2 + 84t + 38; avg. velocity = 40 ft/s
