Question 118253: Maximum height. If a soccer ball is kicked straight up from the ground with an initial velocityof 32 feet per second, then its height above the earth in feet is given by s(t)= -16t2 + 32t where t is time in seconds. Graph this parabola for 0 _< t _<2. What is the maximum height reached by the ball?

S(t)=%28+-16t2+%2B+32t%29
Maximum height is 16feet in 1 second.
