People frequently need to calculate the area of rooms, boxes or plots of land. An example might involve building a rectangular box where one side must be twice the length of the other side.
For example, if you have only 4 square feet of wood to use for the bottom of the box, with this information, you can create an equation for the area of the box using the ratio of the two sides. This means the area -- the length times the width -- in terms of x would equal x times 2x, or 2x2. This equation must be less than or equal to four to successfully make a box using these constraints.
For each rectangle with area given, determine the binomial factors that describe the dimensions.

Jason jumped off a cliff into the ocean in Acapulco while vacationing with some friends. His height as a function of time could be modeled by the function h(t) = -16t²+ 16t + 480 , where t is the time in seconds and h is the height in feet.
How long did it take for Jason to reach his maximum height?
What was the highest point that Jason reached?

If a toy rocket is launched vertically upward from ground level with an initial velocity of 128 feet per second, then its height h after t seconds is given by the equations h(t) = -16t²+ 128t (if air
resistance is neglected).

After how many seconds will the rocket be 112 feet above the ground?
How long will it take the rocket to hit its maximum height?
