<span>A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 36 ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function h = −16t2 + 36t + 5. In how many seconds does the ball reach its maximum height? Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. What is the ball’s maximum height?
A. 2.25 s; 5 ft
B. 1.13 s; 25.25 ft
C. 1.13 s; 27.5 ft
D. 1.13 s; 65.75 ft <====

The point slope form of a line is written as y - y1 = m(x -x1)
Where m is the slope and x1 and y1 are the points on the line.
You are told the slope is 3 and the point is (2,-1/2)
x1 is 2 and y1 is -1/2
Replace those in the equation to get:
y- (-1/2) = 3(x-2)
Simplify to get the final answer:
y + 1/2 = 3(x-2)
3x-2=3
3x=3+2
3x=5
x=5/3
Answer : According to the information provided in the question, the value of 'x' is 5/3
