Jaimie is looking for a golf ball that he hit into the air towards a fence surrounding the golf course. The fence has a height of 2 yards and is located at a distance of 120 yards from where Jaimie hit the ball. Jaimie wants to determine if his golf ball landed inside or outside of the fence.
The golf balls height, 9, in yards with respect to time, t, in seconds, can be modeled by the quadratic function h = -0.6t+ 3t. Jaimie's golf ball
reached its maximum height at the fence.
What is the maximum height, in yards, the golf ball reached before landing back on the ground?
