Answer:

Option B. 1.8 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

h=-16t^2+56t+1

This is a quadratic equation, and its graph is a parabola

h=at^2+bt+c; a=-16, b=56, c=1

Like a=-16<0 the parabola opens downward, and it has a maximum value (height) at the vertex, at the abscissa:

t=-\frac{b}{2a}

Replacing the known values:

t=-\frac{56}{2(-16)}\\ t=-\frac{56}{(-32)}\\ t= 1.75

Approximately 1.8 seconds.

Answer: It takes approximately 1.8 seconds the airplane to reach its maximum height.
