Answer:

Explanation:

y = -5 (x² + 1 - 2x) + 5

y = -5x² + 10x - 5 + 5

y = -5x² + 10x

maximum height = y coordinate of the vertex of the parabola

x = -10/-10

x = 1

y = -5 (1)² + 10 (1)

y = -5 + 10

y = 5


5 meters


b) the x coordinate of the vertex is 1

1 meter


c) since the term without x is 0, the ball was kicked from the ground

0 meters


d) we have to find the x-intercept


-5x² + 10x = 0

-5/-5 x² + 10/-5 x = 0/-5

x² - 2x = 0

x(x-2) = 0

x = 0

x = 2


2 meters
