Problem
For a quadratic equation function that models the height above ground of a projectile, how do you determine the maximum height, y, and time, x , when the projectile reaches the ground
Solution
We know that the x coordinate of a quadratic function is given by:
Vx= -b/2a
And the y coordinate correspond to the maximum value of y.
Then the best options are C and D but the best option is:
D) The maximum height is a y coordinate of the vertex of the quadratic function, which occurs when x = -b/2a
The projectile reaches the ground when the height is zero. The time when this occurs is the x-intercept of the zero of the function that is farthest to the right.
Answer:
negative

Answer:
4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The function
exists in a parabola.
The axis of symmetry of a parabola exists at the midpoint between the two real roots.
The roots exist the solutions of H(t) = 0
To estimate the roots equation exists 
Factor t(-16t + 64) = 0
t = 0 and -16t + 64 =0
-16t + 64 = 0
t = 64 / 16 = 4
t = 4
Then the two roots are t = 0 and t = 4, and the axis of symmetry exists
t = (0+4)/2 = 4/2 = 2
<h3>How to estimate the axis of symmetry?</h3>
The axis of symmetry exists at t = 2.
It represents the time at which the ball is at the higher point, the maximum height.
You can find the maximum height replacing t = 2 in the function H(t)

= 64 feet.
And you can also deduce that the second part of the flight will take 2 seconds, for a total flight time of 4 seconds.
