Question 1163108: a ball is thrown upward and outward from a height of 6 feet. the height of the ball, f(x) in feet can be modeled by f(x)= -0.1x+0.6x+6
where x is the ball's horizontal distance in feet from where it was thrown. use this model to solve parts (a) through (c).
a. what is the maximum height of the ball and how far from where it was thrown does this occur?
the maximum height is [ ] feet, which occurs [ ] feet from the point of release.
round to nearest tenth as needed.
b. how far does the ball travel horizontally before hitting the ground? [ ] feet

I think and strongly believe that the equation in your post is written erroneously.

Double check with your source.
