Answer:

(a)  144 ft

(b)  2 s

(c)  5 s

(d)  128 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]h(t) = -16t^2 + 64t + 80[/tex]

Part (a)

To find the turning point of the parabola:

1. differentiate the function:

[tex]\implies h'(t) = -32t + 64[/tex]

2. Set it to zero and solve for t:

[tex]\implies h'(t) =0[/tex]

[tex]\implies -32t + 64=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies 32t = 64[/tex]

[tex]\implies t=2[/tex]

3. Input found value of t back into the function and solve for h:

[tex]\implies h(2) = -16(2)^2 + 64(2) + 80=144[/tex]

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the ball is 144 ft

Part (b)

As found in part (a), the maximum height is reached when t = 2, so the ball reached its maximum height at 2 seconds.

Part (c)

The ball will hit the ground when h(t) = 0

1. Set the function to zero

[tex]\implies h(t)=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies -16t^2 + 64t + 80=0[/tex]

2. Solve for t:

Divide both sides by 16

[tex]\implies -t^2 + 4t + 5=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies t^2 - 4t - 5=0[/tex]

Factor:

[tex]\implies t^2 +t-5t - 5=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies t(t+1)-5(t+1)=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies (t+1)(t-5)=0[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex](t+1)=0 \implies t=-1[/tex]

[tex](t-5)=0 \implies t=5[/tex]

As time is positive, t = 5

So the ball will hit the ground at 5 seconds.

Part (d)

To find the height of the ball after 1 second, input t = 1 into the function and solve for h:

[tex]\implies h(1) = -16(1)^2 + 64(1) + 80=128[/tex]

Therefore, the height of the ball after 1 second is 128 ft

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Parts (a) & (b) - alternative method

Rewrite the function in vertex form by completing the square.

Set the function to zero:

[tex]\implies-16t^2 + 64t + 80=0[/tex]

Subtract 144 from both sides:

[tex]\implies -16t^2+64t-64=-144[/tex]

Factor out -16:

[tex]\implies -16(t^2 - 4t +4)=-144[/tex]

Factor expression in brackets:

[tex]\implies -16(t-2)^2=-144[/tex]

Add 144 to both sides:

[tex]\implies -16(t-2)^2+144=0[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\implies h(t)=-16(t-2)^2+144[/tex]

The maximum height is the y-value of the vertex.

The vertex is (2, 144) so the maximum height is 144 ft.

The time the ball reached the max height is the x-value of vertex.

So the time then the ball reached the maximum height is 2 s
