Activity Suppose a soccer goalie punted the ball in such a way as to kick the ball as far as possible down the field. The height of the ball above the field as a function of time can be approximated by Y = -0.017x2 + 0.98x + 0.33 Where y represents the height of the ball (in yards) and x represents the horizontal distance in yards down the field from where the goalie kicked the ball. In this situation, the graph of the function is the actual path of the flight of the soccer ball. The graph of this function appears below:
