Question 1158927: The path of a diver is given by
y = - 4x^2 +8x +1
Where x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from the end of the diving bored and y is the height (in meters). What is the maximum height of the driver and at which horizontal distance from the end of the diving board does she maximum height? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! maximum height has x of -b/2a or -(8/-8) which is +1 meter from the board
the height is f(1)=5 meters
it is 5 meters high and occurs 1 meter from the board
