Fireworks are fired from the roof of a 100-foot building. The equation h = -16t² +84t + 100 models the height, h, of the fireworks at any given time, t. How high do the fireworks get?

You and some friends went to a haunted house on Halloween. The mummy scared one friend so much that she jumped into the air! The equation h = -4t² + 2t models her jump where h is her jump's height in feet t seconds after the mummy scares her. When did she reach her maximum height?

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 40ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function :

h(t) = -16t² + 40t + 10

How many seconds does it take the ball to reach its maximum height?

A diver is standing on a platform above the pool. He jumps form the platform with an initial upward velocity of 8 ft/s. Use the formula: h(t) = −16 t² + 8t + 24

How high is the platform?

An object in launched directly upward at 64 feet per second (ft/s) from a platform 80 feet high. Its height is represented by the equation

s(t) = –16t² + 64t + 80

What will be the object's maximum height?
