The position of the ball when it is at its highest point is 121

<h3>Polynomial function</h3>

Given the polynomial function expressed as y = -1/250(x - 175)^2 + 121,

The velocity of the ball at the maximum point is zero. Hence;

dy/dx = -1/125(x-175)

Equating to zero;

0 = -1/125(x - 175)

x = 175

Substitute into the function to get the maximum height

y = -1/250(175 - 175)^2 + 121,

y = 121

Hence the position of the ball when it is at its highest point is 121
