The function h(t) = −16t2 + 18t models the height, in feet, reached by a leopard t seconds after it jumps. What is the approximate maximum height of the jump?

9514 1404 393

  5 1/16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

  h(t) = -16t(t -18/16) . . . . put in intercept form

The function describes a parabola that opens downward. It has zeros at t=0 and t=9/8. The maximum height will be found at the vertex of the parabola, halfway between these zeros.

  f(9/16) = (-16)(9/16)² +18(9/16) = 81/16 = 5 1/16 . . . . feet

The approximate maximum height of the leopard is 5 1/16 feet.
