April shoots an arrow upward into the air at a speed of 64 feet per second from a platform that is 34 feet high.
\n" ); document.write( " The height of the arrow is given by the function h(t) = -16t^2 + 64t + 34, where t is the time is seconds.
\n" ); document.write( " What is the maximum height of the arrow?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The max height occurs on the axis of symmetry: Using x = -b/(2a) where
\n" ); document.write( "a = -16; b = 64
\n" ); document.write( "x = $\"%28-64%29%2F%282%2A-16%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2 seconds
\n" ); document.write( "Find the height at 2 sec
\n" ); document.write( "h(t) = -16(2^2) + 64(2) + 34
\n" ); document.write( "h(t) = -64 + 128 + 34
\n" ); document.write( "h(t) = 98 ft is max height \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
