Question

A ball is thrown into the air. The function h(x) = −16(x − 2)2 + 72 models the height, in feet, of the ball after x seconds. What is the equation in standard form, and what is the maximum height of the ball?
A. h(x) = −16x2 + 32x + 72; 72 ft
B. h(x) = −16x2 − 32x + 72; 32 ft
C. h(x) = −16x2 − 64x + 32; 32 ft
D. h(x) = −16x2 + 64x + 8; 72 ft

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation in standard form, and the maximum height of the ball can only be:
