The height, in feet, of a ball thrown by a child is modeled by the quadratic equation
\frac{1}{12}x^2 + 4x + 5
where \textit{x} is the horizontal distance in feet from the point at which the ball is thrown. Use \textit{f} to answer the
following questions. Round solutions to three decimal places, if necessary.
How high is the ball when it leaves the child's hand?
feet
How far away from the child does the ball reach its maximum height?
feet
What is the maximum height of the ball?
