Problem 3

A diver jumps off a diving board 1010 feet above the pool with an initial upward velocity of 16 ft/s16\text{ ft/s}. The height (in feet) of the diver above the water tt seconds after the jump is given by s(t)=16t2+16t+10s(t) = -16t^2 + 16t + 10. What is the maximum height of the diver above the water?
