Question 66258: Im having a hard time with this problem. Please help!

Suppose a baseball is shot up from the ground straight up with an initial velocity of 32 feet per second. A function can be created by expressing distance above the ground, s, as a function of time, t. This function is s = -16t2 + v0t + s0
� 16 represents �g, the gravitational pull due to gravity (measured in feet per second 2).
� v0 is the initial velocity (how hard do you throw the object, measured in feet per second).
� s0 is the initial distance above ground (in feet). If you are standing on the ground, then s0 = 0.
a) What is the function that describes this problem?
Answer:

b) The ball will be how high above the ground after 1 second?
Answer:

c) How long will it take to hit the ground?
Answer:

d) What is the maximum height of the ball?
Answer:
