Huh??? what does that mean
Answer:
39.0625 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the function is a quadratic representing height, and the coefficient of the t² is negative, the vertex of the parabola will be the maximum height achieved by the ball.
The general form for a quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c, here a is -16, and b is 50
To find the x coordinate of the vertex, use x = -b/(2a)
We have x = -50/[2(-16)]
x = -50/-32
x= 25/16
Now plug that into the equation to find the y value, which will be the height...
y = 50(25/16) - 16(25/16)²
y = 1250/16 - 16(625/256)
y = 1250/16 - 625/16
y = 625/16
y = 39.0625
