Chris stands on the edge of a building at a height of 60 ft. and throws a ball upward with an initial velocity of 68 ft/s. the
ball eventually falls all the way to the ground. what is the maximum height reached by the ball? after how many seconds
will the ball reach its maximum height? how long will it take the ball to reach the ground?
a. what units will we be using to solve this problem?
b. what information from the contextual description do we need to use in the function equation?
c. what is the maximum point reached by the ball? after how many seconds will it reach that height? show your
reasoning.
