<h3><u>(2x - 5)(4x - 3)</u></h3>
The AC method, also known as splitting the middle, can be shown like this:
8x^2 - 26x + 15
<em><u>Check factors of 120.</u></em>
1 * 120
-1 * -120
2 * 60
-2 * -60
3 * 40
-3 * -40
5 * 24
-5 * -24
6 * 20
-6 * -20 (these factors, when added together, are equal to the middle term, and thus splitting the middle term is possible.)
<em><u>Split the middle term.</u></em>
8x^2 - 6x - 20x + 15
<em><u>Group in terms of 2.</u></em>
(8x^2 - 6x) - (20x + 15)
<em><u>Factor each binomial.</u></em>
2x(4x - 3) - 5(4x - 3)
<em><u>Rearrange the terms.</u></em>
(2x - 5)(4x - 3)

The position of the ball when it is at its highest point is 121
<h3>Polynomial function</h3>
Given the polynomial function expressed as y = -1/250(x - 175)^2 + 121,
The velocity of the ball at the maximum point is zero. Hence;
dy/dx = -1/125(x-175)
Equating to zero;
0 = -1/125(x - 175)
x = 175
Substitute into the function to get the maximum height
y = -1/250(175 - 175)^2 + 121,
y = 121
Hence the position of the ball when it is at its highest point is 121
