Question 1042711: A ball with a camera is thrown up in the air by a person who released it at a height of 1.7m. The ball's sensor took pictures a its maximum height of 33m.
The ball was not caught and hit the ground at 4.8 seconds after the time it was released.
Sketch a graph that would model the ball's height versus time. and state the type of function and any key features related to the graph.
Thanks for your time.

Use the free-fall equation in meters

-------------------
The formula for the t-value of the vertex is:

------------------------
You are given that:

When the ball hits the ground:

--------------------

-------------------
the equation is:

--------------------------------------------
here's the plot:

The maximum height looks correct -I'd get a 2nd
opinion on this if possible
