You can either find the roots of the quadratic formula using the quadratic formula two find the halfway point or you can use the formula t=-b/2a. Both of the two methods gives you the axis of symmetry (the t value for the vertex).
I will use the second method since I don't like using the quadratic formula.
t=-32/(2x-16)
t=1 second
After you find the t value for the axis of symmetry, you plug it into the formula of the graph to find the height.
h=-16+32+14
h=30 feet
So base on your question the possible answer to that kind of question and the solution are the following and i hope you will understand the formula and free to ask some questions if needed.
