Answer:

144 feet

Explanation:

Since this is a quadratic equation, we simply need to find the vertex in order to determine the maximum height!

To solve the equation, follow these steps!:


0 = 16t^2+96t\\\\(-b)/(2a) =x\\\\(-96)/(2(-16))=3=x

Now we insert x back into the equation...


= -16(3)^2+96(3)\\ = -16(9)+288\\ =-144+288\\=144
