\n" ); document.write( "\"h%28t%29+=+-t%5E2+%2B+96t+%2B+256\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(a) Find the maximum height of the projectile._______ft\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"h%28t%29+=+-16t%5E2+%2B+96t+%2B+256\"-> the maximum is at vertex
\n" ); document.write( "\"h%28t%29+=+-16%28t%5E2+%2B+6t%29+%2B+256\"...complete square
\n" ); document.write( "\"h%28t%29+=+-16%28t%5E2+%2B+6t%2Bb%5E2%29-%28-16%29b%5E2+%2B+256\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"h%28t%29+=+-16%28t%5E2+%2B+6t%2B3%5E2%29%2B16%2A3%5E2+%2B+256\"

\n" ); document.write( "\"h%28t%29+=+-16%28t%2B3%29%5E2%2B400\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "=> \"h=-3\" and \"k=400\"\r
