To find the height of the ball 4 seconds after it has been thrown, we can substitute t = 4 into the function h(t) = -16t^2 + 72t.

h(4) = -16(4)^2 + 72(4)
h(4) = -16(16) + 288
h(4) = -256 + 288
h(4) = 32

Therefore, the height of the ball 4 seconds after it has been thrown is 32 feet.

The correct answer is 32.
