- A cannonball fired out to sea from a shore battery follows a parabolic trajectory given by the graph of the equation h(x)=10x0.01x2 where h(x) is the height of the cannonball above the water when it has traveled a horizontal distance of x feet. a What is the maximum height that the cannonball reaches? b How far does the cannonball travel horizontally before splashing into the water?arrow_forwardSolve, rounding answers to the nearest tenth. The quadratic function h(x)=16t2+128t+32 is used to find the height of a stone thrown upward from a height of 32 feet at a rate of 128 ft/sec. How long will it take for the stone to reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height?arrow_forward
