Question

A ball is thrown vertically upward.After (t) seconds, its height (h) (in feet) is given by this function h(t)=96t-16t^2. What is the maximum height that the ball will reach? Check Answer for me please?

Answer 1

I got the answer 144 ft. Is it correct?

Answer 2

Calculus or algebra ? (we can do either here)

Answer 3

College Algebra

Answer 5

yes

Answer 6

can I ask what you got for the x-coordinate of the vertex?
