Application

1. Riley kicks a soccer ball, which she finds on a deck, to Jadyn who is on the ground. The
path of the ball is modelled by the function: ℎ(𝑡) = −𝑡 2 + 5.4𝑡 + 0.71 , where h is the
height off the ground, in metres, and t is the time, in seconds.
a. Determine the height of the deck above the ground. [1 mark]

b. Determine when the ball hits the ground in front of Jadyn. Show your work.
Round answers to two decimal places. [4 marks]

c. Determine the maximum height of the ball and what time it occurs. Show your
