What is the maximum height of h(t)=-16t^2+16t+480

There's a negative in a, so it would have an invisible -1 multiplying the whole equation.
-1(16t^2-16t-480)
Then you take two numbers that multiply to 16*-480
and add to -16. Let's hide out the -1 for now until the end to make it easier for us.
In this case, it would be -96 and 80 because 16*-480 = -7680 and multiplying -96 by 80 results in same product while adding up to -16.
Then you put those numbers in.
(16t^2-96t+80t-480)
Start to factor them by adding brackets and using GCF to separate them.
(16t^2-96t)+(80t-480)
Again, with GCF to simplify even more.
16t(t-6)+80(t-6)
And re-arrange to form the numbers into factored form cause of distributive property.
(16t+80)(t-6)
GCF to simplify to lowest terms.
16(t+5)(t-6)
Bring back the -1 we hid.
-16(t+5)(t-6)
Important Note: in vertex and factored form, the plus/positive signs within the brackets mean left side into negative x-values, and negative signs within brackets mean right side into positive x-values. In this case, your x-intercepts/zeros are (-5,0) and (6,0).

A person can't go into negative time, so they start from 0 and hit into the positive number of the x-int, so that's (6,0). 6 seconds. Find midpoint by adding the two x-int and dividing by 2.
h= \frac{-5+6}{2} \\  \\ h= \frac{1}{2}
Take the midpoint and plug into your quadratic equation to find your max height. Use a calculator for this.

This is a really interesting question! One thing that we can notice right off the bat is that each of the circles has the same amount of area swept out of it - namely, the amount swept out by one of the interior angles of the hexagon. Let’s call that interior angle θ. We know that the amount of area swept out in the circle is proportional to the angle swept out - mathematically

θ/360 = a/A

Where “a” is the area swept out by θ, and A is the area of the whole circle, which, given a radius of r, is πr^2. Substituting this in, we have

θ/360 = a/(πr^2)

Solving for “a”:

a = π(r^2)θ/360

So, we have the formula for the area of one of those sectors; all we need to do now is find θ and multiply our result by 6, since we have 6 circles. We can preempt this but just multiplying both sides of the formula by 6:

6a = 6π(r^2)θ/360

Which simplifies to

6a = π(r^2)θ/60

Now, how do we find θ? Let’s look first at the exterior angles of a hexagon. Imagine if you were taking a walk around a hexagon. At each corner, you turn some angle and keep walking. You make 6 turns in all, and in the end, you find yourself right back at the same place you started; you turned 360 degrees in total. On a regular hexagon, you’d turn by the same angle at each corner, which means that each of the six turns is 360/6 = 60 degrees. Since each interior and exterior angle pair up to make 180 degrees (a straight line), we can simply subtract that exterior angle from 180 to find θ, obtaining an angle of 180 - 60 = 120 degrees.

Finally, we substitute θ into our earlier formula to find that

6a = π(r^2)120/60

Or

6a = 2πr^2

So, the area of all six sectors is 2πr^2, or the area of two circles with radii r.
