y = -16t2 + 38t
Maximum occurs at t = -b / 2a, or t = -38 / 2(-16)
Can you substitute for t and answer?

asked 05/30/21If a ball is thrown directly upward with a velocity of 38 ft/s, its height (in feet) after t seconds is given by y = 38t − 16t2.What is the maximum height attained by the ball? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
