Fa baseball is projected upward from ground level with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second, then its height is a function of time, given by sequalsminus16tsquaredplus96t. what is the maximum height reached by the ball?

height of the ball is given as a function of time

it is given by equation

here in order to find the maximum height we will use the concept of calculus where the maximum value of function will exist when its derivative becomes zero.

so here we can say

now we will put t = 3 in the given equation

So the maximum height will be h = 144 ft.

measuring things 1 litre of water

option number c is the right answer.
