Question 150423This question is from textbook
: Maximum height. If a soccer 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) = -16tē + 32t where t is time in seconds. Graph this parabola for 0≤ t ≤ 2.
What is the maximum height reached by the ball?
