Xavier shoots a basketball in which the height, in feet, is modeled by the equation, h(t) = -4t2 + 10 + 18, where t is time, in seconds. What is the maximum height of the basketball?

The maximum height of the basketball is of 24.25 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

It's vertex is the point

In which

Where

If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at , and it's value is .

Height of the basketball:

Given by the following function:

Which is a quadratic function with

What is the maximum height of the basketball?

y(in this case h) of the vertex. So

The maximum height of the basketball is of 24.25 feet.

this shows a reflection over the x-axis and is translated one unit down and 6 units to the right (x + 6, y - 1)

hope this !
