The path traveled by a golf hit with a 9-iron ball can be modeled with the quadratic function y = -0.042x^2 + 5x where x is the distance in yards from the point it was hit and y is the height of the golf ball in feet. Assuming that the ground is level
a) Find the maximum height reached by the ball
b) How far from where it was hit does the ball hit the ground
