The equation h= -16t^2 + 32t + 9 gives the height of a ball, h, in feet above the ground,at t seconds after the ball is thrown upward.How many seconds after the ball is thrown will it reach its maximum height? What is its maximum height?

v = dh/dt = 32 -32 t
at top, v = 0
t = 1
h = 9+16 = 25
now with algebra
16 t^2 -32 t =9 - h
complete square
t^2 -2 t = (-1/16)(h - 9)
t^2-2t+1 = (-1/16)(h - 9)+16/16
(t-1)^2 = -(1/16)( h-25)
t = 1, h=25 same answer

a ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 32 ft per second. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function h(t)=-16t^2 +32t+6. How long does it take the ball to reach its maximum height? What is the
With s(t) measured in feet and t in seconds, the equation s(t)= -16t^2 + 32t expresses the height of a ball above the ground after t seconds if it were thrown upward with a velocity of 32 ft/sec. (a) What is the maximum height of
THe function h(t)=-16t^2+v0t+h0 describes the height in feet above the ground h(t) of an object thrown vertically from a height of h0 feet, with an initial velocity of v0 feet per second, if there is no air friction and t is the
ball is thrown up at 88 ft/s from a height of 25 feet. Path of ball is y = -16t^2 + 88t +25. y is the height of ball above the ground t seconds after being thrown. when does it reach maxiumum height? (I got that at 2.75 s) At what
If a ball is thrown vertically upward from a height of 56ft. above ground with an initial velocity of 40ft. per second, then the height of the ball above ground t seconds after it is thrown is given by f(t)=-16t^2 + 40t +56. How
A ball is thrown upward from a height of 240 feet. the height h of the object(in feet) t seconds after the ball is released is given by h=-16t^2+32t+240 a. how long does it take the ball to reach its maximum height? b. what is the
A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 40 feet per second. Its height, h, in feet after t seconds is given by the function h(t)=-16t^2+40t+10. a. What is the ball’s maximum height? 35Ft b. When the ball hits
ball thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 80 ft per second. The distance s(in ft) of the ball from the ground after t seconds is s=80t-16t^2. a. draw the illustration. b. for what time interval is ball more than 96
