If 𝑟₁ and 𝑟₂ are the zeros of
a quadratic function, then
(𝒙) = (𝒙− 𝒓₁)(𝒙−𝒓₂) is its
equation where 𝑎 is any
nonzero constant.

 PROBLEM SOLVING:
A toy rocket is fired into the air from the top of a
barn. Its height (h) above the ground in meters
after t seconds is given by the function
h(t)=−5t2 +10t + 20.
1. What was the initial height of the rocket?
2. What time at which the rocket reaches its
maximum height? Express the unit of your answer
in second (s)?
