Given the equation below,


y=-16t^2+64t

To find the maximum point, dy/dt = 0.

Differentiating the equation above,


\begin{gathered} y=-16t^2+64t \\ (dy)/(dt)=-32t+64 \end{gathered}

Where dy/dt = 0,


\begin{gathered} -32t+64=0 \\ -32t=-64 \\ t=(-64)/(-32)=2 \end{gathered}

Substituting for t into the equation, maximum height is'


\begin{gathered} y=-16t^2+64t \\ \text{Where t = 2} \\ y=-16(2)^2+64(2) \\ y=-16(4)+128_{} \\ y=-64+128=64 \end{gathered}

Hence, the maximum height of the football is 64 ft.

The vertex form is to be used which is given below as,


y=-16(t-2)^2+64

Where (h, k) represents the coordinate of the vertex and k is the maximum height.
