Aball is thrown vertically upward. after t seconds, its height h (in feet) is given by the function h(t) = 52t - 16t^2 . what is the maximum height that the ball will reach?
do not round your answe

42.25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height function is a parabola.  The maximum value of a negative parabola is at the vertex, which can be found with:

x = -b/2a

where a and b are the coefficients in y = ax² + bx + c.

Here, we have y = -16t² + 52t.  So a = -16 and b = 52.  The vertex is at:

t = -52 / (2×-16)

t = 13/8

Evaluating the function:

h(13/8) = -16(13/8)² + 52(13/8)

h(13/8) = -169/4 + 169/2

h(13/8) = 169/4

h(13/8) = 42.25

option 3 . (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
