Answer:

<h2>After two seconds, the ball reached 9 units up.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

y=-x^{2} +4x+5

The given function models the path of the ball.

The maxium height the ball reached is given by the vertex of this function, which has coordinates V(h,k), where h=-\frac{b}{2a} and k=f(h).

From the equation, we know that a=-1, b=4 and c=5. Replacing these values, we have

h=-\frac{4}{2(-1)}=2

k=f(2)=-(2)^{2} +4(2)+5=-4+8+5=9

Where k determines the height and h the time when the maximum height was reached by the ball.

The maximum height is 9 units.

Therefore, after two seconds, the ball reached 9 units up.
