Question 1166878: A toy rocket is shot vertically into the air from a launching pad 7 feet above the ground with an initial velocity of 160 feet per second. The height h, in feet, of the rocket above the ground at t seconds after launch is given by the function h(t)= -16t^2 +160t +7. How long will it take the rocket to reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height? Answer by ikleyn(52798) (Show Source):
