A cannonball fired out to sea from a shore battery follows aparabolic trajectory given by the graph of the equation
h(x) = 11x − 0.01x2
where h(x) is the height of thecannonball above the water when it has traveled a horizontaldistance of x feet.
(a) What is the maximum height that the cannonballreaches?(b) How far does the cannonball travel horizontally beforesplashing into the water?
