1.   If a rocket is fired from the ground with an initial velocity of 75 meters per second, then the height of the rocket after t seconds is h = 75t - 4.9t2. Find the height of the rocket after 3 seconds.
    A. 180.9 meters B. 252.5 meters
    C. 221.6 meters D. 130.4 meters
    Hint

  2.   What is the equation of the graph shown?
   
    A. y = -x2 +2x - 1 B. y = -x2 - 2x - 1
    C. y = x2 - 2x + 1 D. y = x2 + 2x + 1
    Hint

  3.   Describe how the graph of y = (x + 1)2 differs from the graph of y = x2.
    A. the graph of y = (x + 1)2 moved 1 unit to the left
    B. the graph of y = (x + 1) 2 moved down 1 unit
    C. the graph of y = (x+1)2 moved 1 unit to the right
    D. the graph of y = (x + 1)2 moved up 1 unit
    Hint

  4.   Find a quadratic equation for the table.
   
    A. y = x2 – 5 B. y = 5x2 – 2
    C. y = 5x2 – 1 D. y = 5x2 + 1
    Hint

  5.   Two friends are playing catch with a baseball. The ball's flight can be modeled by the equation
