Answer:

The maximum height that the ball will reach is 81 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the tray of the ball is given by the equation of a parabola of negative main coefficient. Then, the maximum value for a parabola is at its vertex.

For an equation of the form

at ^ 2 + bt + c

So

the t coordinate of the vertice is:

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

In this case the equation is:

h(t)=72t-16t^2

So

a=-16\\b=72\\c=0

Therefore

t =-\frac{72}{2(-16)}

t=2.25\ s

Finally the maximum height that the ball will reach is

h(2.25)=72(2.25)-16(2.25)^2

h=81\ ft

this gives
total area of the field = 4655 sqyrd + 1884.79 sqyrd = 6539.79 sqyrd
 cost of fertilising 1 sqyrd = $ 0.08
 so cost of fertilising 6539.79 sqyrd = 6539.79 * $ 0.08 = $ 523.18
