The height is 9.875 feet from which the goalkeeper catches the ball.

The player kicks soccer from a height of 2 feet

x = 0 and y = 2

Maximum height of 20 feet after traveling 40 feet

x = 40, y = 20

So let y = a(x - 40)² + 20  ( the path of parabola)

Since x = 0 , y = 2

So, 2 = a(0 - 40)² + 20

2 = 1600a + 20

-18 = 1600a

a = - 9/800

Thus, y = -9/800(x - 40)² + 20

Since the soccer is caught by the goalkeeper 70 feet from where it was kicked

x = 70

So at this time,

y = -9/800 ( 70 - 40)² + 20

  = -9/800 × 900 + 20

  = - 81/8 + 20

  = 79/ 8

  = 9.875 feet

Therefore the height at which the goalkeeper catches the ball is 9.875 feet.
