If a ball is thrown directly upward with a velocity of 34 ft/s, its height (in feet) after t seconds is given by y = 34t − 16t2. What is the maximum height attained by the ball? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1.0625ft

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or 17/16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 1 is the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

18.0625, so 18. you found the distance the ball travelled from the starting point, not it's height

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you need to substitute that value. Actually, you found the time it took to reach that height

OpenStudy (anonymous):
