Flight of a Ball If a ball is thrown upward at 96 feet per second from the top of a building that is 100 feet high, the height of the ball can be modeled by S(t) = 100 + 96t − 16t2 feet, where t is the number of seconds after the ball is thrown.

a. Describe the graph of the model.


b. Find the t-coordinate and S-coordinate of the vertex of the graph of this quadratic function.


c. Explain the meaning of the coordinates of the vertex for this model.
