Answer:

180feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function that models the height of a ball

s(t) = 144 + 48t − 16t^2.

At maximum height, the velocity is zero ie. ds/dt  = 0

ds/dt = 48 - 32t

0 = 48 - 32t

48 = 32t

t = 48/32

t = 1.5secs

Get the maximum height

s(t) = 144 + 48t − 16t^2.

s(1.5) = 144 + 48(1.5)-16(1.5)^2

s()1.5) = 144 + 72 - 16(2.25)

s(1.5) = 144 + 72-36

s(1.5) = 180 feet

Hence the maximum height attained by the ball is 180feet

INSERT TWO RATIONAL NUMBERS BETWEEN 2 AND 3. How to find them?
Kay [80]
There are an infinite number of them.
Here are a few:

2.1
2.2
2.3
2.3000000001
2.30000000000000006
2.5
2.00009
.
.
etc.

How to find them:

You probably never heard this before, but I'll bet
you'll remember it from now on:

<em>ANY number that you can write down on paper completely, </em><em>using digits
and a decimal point if you need it but no symbols, is a rational number.</em>

If you can write it down completely without any 'comments', then it's rational.
