Answer:
After 1 second, the ball will reach a maximum height of 16 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of the ball after t seconds: h(t) = -16t^2 + 32t
The graph of this quadratic function is parabola which opens downwards. The vertex of a quadratic equation is the maximum or minimum point on the equation's parabola
t = -b/2a = -(32)/2(-16) = -32/-32 = 1 second
then
h(t) = -16(1)^2 + 32(1) = -16 + 32 = 16
After 1 second, the ball will reach a maximum height of 16 feet
see the figure below to better understand the problem
we have that
<h2>The answer is 357.0 feet</h2>
The lines are parallel, because they have the same gradient but are just in different positions ie. y = x-9.
