Question

I need help with this one I’m not sure if I got it right

Answer 1

Answer:

144 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a quadratic equation, we simply need to find the vertex in order to determine the maximum height!

To solve the equation, follow these steps!:

$0 = 16t^2+96t\\\\\frac{-b}{2a} =x\\\\\frac{-96}{2(-16)}=3=x$

Now we insert x back into the equation...

$= -16(3)^2+96(3)\\ = -16(9)+288\\ =-144+288\\=144$
