What is the maximum height? b. How many seconds does it take until the ball finally hits the ground? Round to the nearest tenth of a second. c. Find s(0) and describe what this means. d. Use your results from parts (a) through (c) to graph the quadratic function. Begin the graph with t 0 and end with the value of t for which the ball hits the ground.
