21 = 2x + 5
---> 21 - 5 = 2x
----> 16 = 2x
-----> x = 8

The height is 9.875 feet from which the goalkeeper catches the ball.
The player kicks soccer from a height of 2 feet
x = 0 and y = 2
Maximum height of 20 feet after traveling 40 feet
x = 40, y = 20
So let y = a(x - 40)² + 20 ( the path of parabola)
Since x = 0 , y = 2
So, 2 = a(0 - 40)² + 20
2 = 1600a + 20
-18 = 1600a
a = - 9/800
Thus, y = -9/800(x - 40)² + 20
Since the soccer is caught by the goalkeeper 70 feet from where it was kicked
x = 70
So at this time,
y = -9/800 ( 70 - 40)² + 20
= -9/800 × 900 + 20
= - 81/8 + 20
= 79/ 8
= 9.875 feet
Therefore the height at which the goalkeeper catches the ball is 9.875 feet.
