Question 139844: If a socker ball is kicked straight up from the ground with an initial velocity of 32 feet per second, then its height above the earth in feet is given by s(t)=-16t^2+32t where t is time in seconds. Graph this parabola for 0less than or greater than t less than or greater than 2. What is the maximum height reached by the ball?

Graph: s%28t%29+=+-16t%5E2%2B32t
graph%28400%2C400%2C-3%2C3%2C-5%2C20%2C-16x%5E2%2B32x%29
The maximum height reached is 16 feet.
