I got 136.9 feet
Tell me how I did
The path of an object projected at a 45-degree angle with an initial velocity of 60 feet per second is given by the function h(x) = -32/((60)^2)x^2 + x, where x is the horizontal distance traveled in feet and h(x) is the object's height in feet.
Use a graphing calculator or another graphing utility to determine the height of the object when it has traveled 80 feet horizontally. Give your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot.
I would like an explanation for this one if possible. Want to understand it.

I assume you calculated h(80)
Yes sir I did
My math was wrong I got it now
23.1 feet
I think that's correct
