The line of symmetry through the parabola described by s(t) is

... t = -48/(2×(-16)) = 1.5

This is the time at which the ball reaches its maximum height.

... s(1.5) = 132 + 48×1.5 -16×1.5²

... s(1.5) = 132 + 72 - 36 = 168


The maximum height attained by the ball is 168 ft.

check the picture below.


so the maximum height of the ball is obtained at the vertex's y-coordinate, hmm what is it anyway?


\bf \textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients}
\\\\
s(t)=132+48t-16t^2
\\\\\\
s(t)=\stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{-16}t^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+48}t\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{+132}
\qquad \qquad 
\left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}~~~~ ,~~~~  c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right)
\\\\\\
\left( \qquad ,~~132-\cfrac{48^2}{4(-16)} \right)\implies \left( \qquad ,~~132+\cfrac{2304}{64} \right)
\\\\\\
\left( \qquad ,~~132+36 \right)\implies (\quad ,~\stackrel{feet}{168})

Flauer [41]
This is substitution, it's very simple once you get the hang of it! 

okay, what you want to do is plug in the numbers you already have, to get the number you don't have(r).

First, you plug in the numbers.

1.  P= $2000  
    A=$2543
    t= 4(years)
    r=? 

2543=2000^r(4) 

Secondly, you want to solve the equation.
